What QueensLink says about Atl Beltline Transit:

> What happens when you build the trails before the rails? You get Atlanta’s Beltline, a project which after two decades has still not added the rail.

> QueensWay and the Trust for Public Land know this and are trying to prove to elected officials that their anti-transit scheme is what residents want...

One of said lines that has been left abandoned is the #RockawayBeachBranch. so if MTA chairperson and chief executive Janno Lieber is proud that “we’re moving back into the transit-building business, the expansion business” then #BuildTheQueensLink is next, right? 😁

Ever try going to the #Rockaways by car or bus during the PM rush?

I did earlier today on the Q109 bus (A train replacement), and left by Q114.

Conduit westbound, Cross Bay southbound, and Rockaway Blvd southbound are all awful for bus riders.

That's why we need to #BuildtheQueensLink! https://thequeenslink.org/

(The A also needs to run again in May. I always thought Rockaways A trains were too empty, but I will never underappreciate this line again after today.)
