Morning commuters are seen through a rain-soaked and fogged uptown subway window, Wednesday, Jan. 18, in New York.

AP: NEW YORK - Several major wireless carriers submitted bids Wednesday to wire 277 New York subway stations for cell phone use, including one proposal that involves four of the nation’s biggest carriers forming an alliance.

The bids mark a significant step in a long-running effort to make cell phone service available to the millions of New Yorkers who lose mobile phone communications when using the subways. | story
