As long as this project comes with protected bike lanes on Woodhaven Blvd (because we also need a north/south bike corridor that's safe). I used to live in Glendale, go to school in Ozone Park, and go to the Rockaways for fun. I would love to see a faster and higher-capacity transportation option than what could be possible with bus rapid transit (Select Bus Service).

This would alleviate congestion on Woodhaven-CrossBay Boulevard. It's not just south Queens residents wanting to go north; it's central Queens residents wanting to head south.

Support reactivation but think they've got the alignment wrong. To get to the airport it should turn off the line farther south, and approach the people mover tracks by way of the airport campus, meeting them below grade at the western end of the wye (triangular formation) having the airport loop at its other two corners. Only extremely short cars can negotiate the curves at the airport, and they would have to run into Penn and GCT.

Let's also abolish higher fares than the MTA fare to/from both northeast Queens (e.g., Bayside, Douglaston, Little Neck) and southeast Queens (e.g., Locust Manor, Laurelton, Rosedale) and honor MetroCards to and from such stations.

Southern Queens needs more and better transit options. We do not need another park, we need more transit.

add more trains on Woodhaven Blvd. Stop adding bike lanes and give the roadway back to cars and buses to transport people

This is necessary for North South travelers.

We don't need another park, we need a better option to move around in Queens. Restoring the Rockaway Beach Rail Line would serve better to our residents.

We need good fast reliable transportation in our city. Over an hour to get to manhattan from queens shows we are in the Stone As far as transportation.

Subway connections in Queens outside of Long Island City are limited and leave a lot to be desired. QueensRail would greatly improve transit access for Queens and the Rockaways.
