Happy Open Data Week! Our latest report was built on Open Data, and the data says NYC has WAYYY too much to lose if QueensWay is built. Tell Mayor Mamdani, Listen to the Data: NO WAY to QueensWAY! actionnetwork.org/letters/it-all…

Faster Commuter, Lower Emissions, Equity for Queens… It all goes away with QueensWay. If you want @zohr to stand by his past support, TAKE ACTION and use the Link in Bio to tell him “NO WAY to QueensWay!!” #nowaytoQueensWay #railsandtrails

South Queens is in a full blown Transportation Crisis. @NYCMayor 's preliminary budget has kept $43 million in funding for the anti-transit scheme QueensWay. As designed, QueensWay would prevent a future north-south subway in Queens from ever being built.

In a new piece early this morning from the @nytimes on QueensLink’s report release, @NYCMayor 's office declined to comment on whether the Mayor still supports transit on the Rockaway Beach Branch. Is @ZohranKMamdani turning his back on Queens riders?

We're bringing back #FAQFriday for a question that we've been getting for years: Why the more expensive subway option over the (slightly) cheaper LIRR option? Swipe to find out why it's a little more complicated than that! #railsandtrails #buildthequeenslink
