Summary
MTA Police Department
government legacy
The network of the MTA Police Department, the law-enforcement agency of New York's Metropolitan Transportation Authority, registered under the handle MTAPD from 420 Lexington Avenue in Manhattan.
What it's used for
- Connectivity for a transit police force: agency systems, communications and applications supporting policing across the MTA's railroads and facilities.
- The IPv4 space it announces is delegated out of address blocks registered to the New York City Transit Authority, the MTA's subway and bus operating agency.
Notable
- A government / public-safety network rather than a commercial one. The address space belongs to a public transit authority, so traffic from it is agency traffic, not subscriber traffic.
- ARIN registered this AS number to the MTA Police Department in 2025, so the low number is a modern reassignment and carries no early-internet history.

Internet exchanges
No exchange port on file. Many exchanges publish no participant list, so this is not proof of absence.
Exchange presence is recorded rather than inferred: the directory collected by Packet Clearing House (https://www.pch.net/ixp/data) on 2026-10-28, licensed CC BY-NC-SA 3.0. Transit is inferred from observed BGP paths, never declared by either party.

Classification and threat
Unclassified Not in the curated lists. Most of the ~80,000 allocated ASNs are not.
Spamhaus DROP
Not on ASN-DROP The network as a whole is not listed.
No DROP prefixes None of its announced space is on the DROP prefix list.
Spamhaus DROP ("Don't Route Or Peer") lists space and networks run by, or hijacked for, spam and cybercrime operations: 448 networks and 1,851 prefixes, as published 2026-10-29. A short, high-confidence list, so a match is worth taking seriously, and absence from it says little on its own.
FBI IC3
No IC3 indicators Nothing from the FBI IC3 feed.
IC3 threat data is alpha. Absence of an indicator is not evidence of good behaviour, only of absence from this one feed.
