G Train Oversight Hearing Tues April 8 (we need you!)

anonymous · April 2008

Dear G Friends:

It's happening -- NYC Council Transportation Committee Chair John Liu has organized an oversight hearing on G train service. Witnesses from the MTA will be asked to speak about ridership data, plans for the future, conditions, and other issues regarding G line service.

Time/Date: Tuesday, April 8 at 1:00pm
Location: Council Chambers, City Hall

Re: Oversight: What is the MTA doing to improve service on the G line?/Resolution #1262 Calling upon MTA to immediately improve service on the G line and to not implement any service cuts.

We need to ensure a LARGE turnout for this. Email anyone who might be able to attend this and has expressed frustration about G line service -- we all need to get together and turn out in force to tell the NYC Council our own experiences on the line, as well as dealing with the MTA.

Save The G says that if you absolutely CAN'T testify in person next Tuesday, their volunteers will submit your written testimony for you, and it will be entered into the official hearing record.

Email your statement, with your full name & address (otherwise it's not official testimony) to [email protected]. STG pledges that no one will see these statements but the Council transportation committee members and their aides. (Keep language clean, folks; it's supposed to be a family show...)

isn't ironic and typical of the MTA in it's "ways of mysterious operations" to hold this hearing in the middle of a weekday - WHEN MOST PEOPLE WHO ARE REGULARLY INCONVENIENCED BY THE LACK OF SERVICE ARE AT WORK..................the MTA is such a farce and should be disbanded........they are crooked and useless. I for one will be sumbitting my written testimony since i will be at work at 1pm on a Tuesday.
