MTA president to address rumored closing of Clark Street station
The MTA is finally breaking its silence about the potential upcoming closure of the Clark Street subway station in Brooklyn Heights.
After four months of rumors, New York City Transit President Andy Byford will be bringing the public up to date at a town hall at St. Francis College on Monday, Sept. 16 from 6-8 p.m.
Assemblymember Jo Anne Simon’s office announced the meeting, which arose after officials including Simon, U.S. Rep. Nydia Velázquez, State Sen. Brian Kavanagh, City Councilmember Stephen Levin and Borough President Eric Adams had a briefing with the MTA.
“We were pretty clear we wanted the community to be fully informed,” Simon told the Brooklyn Eagle. “Andy Byford offered to be there, discuss the renovations and field questions.”
