Please help the many of us who commute to and from the city to work and those who want to visit our great city.
Almost 4 hours out of my day just to commute within the city limits...crazy? The forgotten people of the Rockaways deserve better service. Just do it already! Thank you..

Please help improve transportation options to SW Queens and the Rockaways! It should not take three hours to get home to SW Queens from the Museum of Natural History!

It's unbeleivable that it takes almost 2 hours to travel 10 miles in the "Greatest City on Earth". Public transportation outside of Manhattan and Downtown Brooklyn is an utter disgrace .

I no longer live in the area, but I support the rail link over the "greenway" proposals. Change needs to benefit the neighborhood, not NYC tourism.

We love the QueensRail. Bring back our time, safety and prosperity to Queens and the region. We need more faster and safer transportation options. Bring back our train that was stolen from us in 1950 and divided the region. We had a 45 minute ride to get to the beaches in Queens. Now it takes about two hours to travel by bus or train or pay unfair tolls that isolates and separates a small beach community in Queens from Queens and Brooklyn. City Hall needs to treat the outer boroughs equally.

The New York City region needs the QueensRail and not the QueensWall. The QueensRail is a 3.5 mile unused train track that is only 2 to 6 city blocks east and parallel to gridlocked Woodhaven Boulevard. The QueensRail will reunite north and south Queen, Midtown Manhattan and the region with more social, economic, recreational, educational and environmental opportunities and will serve millions of commuters. The QueensRail was unjustly stolen from the people and we want it back. Please help us fight to bring back our freedom, safety and prosperity. Help us to stop dividing, separating and isolating people with longer, unreliable travel times.

QueensRail is a must. It will benefit all of the residents of Queens County. It will help to connect the entire Borough.

It's a no brainer. This is a much needed transportation improvement that will spur economic activity in the borough.
