What do places like New York City/etc. do when Subway tunnels flood due to torrential rain? Where does the water go?

With Henri hitting the northeast, I was thinking about that and how when Elsa hit that the subway tunnels flooded. Do they pump it out or something?

It is pumped out from the lowest points, floods happen when the amount of water coming in exceeds the capacity of the pumps.
