Why This Venue
Subway DOOH reaches the highest-density urban audiences in America. NYC subway alone carries 3.4 million daily riders. Platform screens have the attention advantage of a captive, waiting audience.
Strategic Insight
Platform screens outperform concourse screens on dwell and attention. In-car screens have the longest exposure per rider but lower attention quality due to phone competition.
