The shift is expected in the next two weeks. Davey has to start his new $420,000-a-year gig by Sept. 9.

“We’re grateful to Rich Davey for his leadership, which improved service and safety in the subways, and wish him all the best as he returns home to Massachusetts,” a spokesperson for Gov. Kathy Hochul said in a statement.

“Governor Hochul will work with Janno Lieber and the MTA Board to identify a new leader to lead New York City Transit into the future and execute on the governor’s bold pro-transit agenda.”

Davey, who started at MTA two years ago, marks the fourth leader to abandon the position in a little over four years.

"That's just the reality of the governing structure now at the MTA," Fauss said. "There's always that tension between having an operations expert and someone who wants to be a figurehead. Finding the right person who is comfortable with the role and the public perception of it is tricky."
