Lets gooooo #BuildtheQueensLink #RockawayBeachBranch
Today, residents of southern Queens face some of the longest commutes in the nation! By building a sustainable, cost-effective transit corridor parallel to Woodhaven Boulevard we can significantly reduce car congestion and emissions. This vital project will provide subway access for at least 47,000 daily riders!

Much of South Queens is a “subway desert.” Luckily, infrastructure for extension already exists!
@queenslink.org would revitalize the #RockawayBeachBranch and improve subway access for 47k+ New Yorkers.
This crucial project needs all the support it can get, so donate today!
