transit security
Subway system protection
Transit security encompasses the measures, personnel, and systems that protect public transportation—buses, subways, trains, ferries, and their stations—from crime, terrorism, and other threats.
This includes uniformed officers, surveillance cameras, bag checks, and emergency protocols.
Transit security was increased after the bombing.
The term also refers to the agencies or personnel themselves: Transit security detained the man.
