G train to undergo “full review” by MTA
G train riders are one step closer to getting changes and improvements enacted on their subway line.
The Metropolitan Transportation Authority (MTA) has agreed to “undertake a Full Line Review of the G train” and the review will be completed by the end of June 2013,” they announced on Friday, February 22. Residents and politicians signed a petition and rallied in January to pressure the MTA to begin addressing ongoing problems on the train line.
“G train riders spoke. Now, this Full Line Review will give us real answers to lead to real changes,” said State Senator Daniel Squadron, who spearheaded and was one of several area officials who have pushed for the MTA’s review. “Working together in the past, we’ve made dramatic improvements throughout the system — including first-of-their-kind Full Line Reviews that led to better F and L train service.”
