  • Appendix D.3 Scoping Report
    PUBLIC COMMENTS PC00001 LGA Comments <[email protected]> LaGuardia Airport Access Improvement Project Denise Crockett <[email protected]> Thu, May 9, 2019 at 10:44 PM To: "[email protected]" <[email protected]> Dear Mr Andrew Brooks: Thank you for the opportunity to comment on the LaGuardia Airport Access Improvement Project. As a long term resident of Jamaica, NY, residing along the Grand Central Parkway, I do believe that there is a great need for these proposed improvements. Connecting the LaGuardia Airport to the LIRR and NYCT No. 7 Line is a great idea, but it does not go far enough! Both of these proposed connections are Manhattan centric, that is supporting more ridership between the Airport and the City. This does absolutely nothing to relieve or ease local traffic congestion we experience in Queens on the Long Island Expressway and the Grand Central Parkway with inbound and outbound Long Island traffic. It also does not reduce heavy traffic congestion on the Van Wyck Expressway between JKF and LaGuardia. It would be helpful if the proposed plan included plans to extend the Airtrain light rail service Train which ends at the Jamaica LIRR Station to LaGuardia Airport with a stop at the NYCT No 7 Line. Having lived here for over 40 years and having travelled extensively on business out of both airports, I believe that extending the Airtrain from the Jamaica Station to LaGuardia Airport would be a tremendous improvement and provide many more benefits for the greater NYC area.

  • • the Activation of OMNY Readers at the Queensboro Plaza Station in Queens Marks the Completion of the Line and the Halfway Po
    The activation of OMNY readers at the Queensboro Plaza station in Queens marks the completion of the line and the halfway point in the MTA's effort to activate OMNY at all 472 subway stations in the system. OMNY installation remains set to be completed by the end of the year at all subway stations and on all MTA-operated buses. A list of all subway stations and bus routes where OMNY is currently in use is at this link: https://omny.info/system-rollout In March, the MTA announced OMNY had surpassed 10 million taps. In 2021, the MTA will introduce an OMNY card at retail locations throughout the New York region. Also in 2021, the MTA will begin to install new vending machines at locations throughout the system. OMNY readers accept contactless cards from companies such as Visa, Mastercard, American Express, and Discover, as well as digital wallets such as Apple Pay, Google Pay, Samsung Pay, and Fitbit Pay. Following the completion of OMNY installation at all subway turnstiles and on buses, the MTA will introduce all remaining fare options, including unlimited ride passes, reduced fares, student fares, and more. Only after OMNY is fully available everywhere MetroCard is today, expected in 2023, will the MTA say goodbye to the MetroCard. The MetroCard was first tested in the system in 1993, debuting to the larger public in January 1994. All turnstiles were MetroCard-enabled by May 1997 and all buses began accepting it by the end of 1995. Tokens were sold until April 2003 and acceptance was discontinued that May in subway stations and that December on buses.

  • C.1.V. Provisions for Pedestrians and Bicyclists
    Final Environmental Impact Statement Section II.C C.1.v. Provisions for Pedestrians and Bicyclists Provisions for pedestrians and bicyclists within the project area are limited to at-grade streets and sidewalks within the industrial areas of Brooklyn and Queens on both sides of Newtown Creek and the Brooklyn residential neighborhoods of Greenpoint and East Williamsburg. Based on review of the New York City Bicycle Map, 56th Road and Review Avenue are the only designated routes in the vicinity of the bridge and are recommended as areas where sufficient street width for bicyclists is available and where vehicular traffic is light. Pedestrian and bicycle access across the bridge is not provided, and therefore persons crossing Newtown Creek must use the Greenpoint Avenue Bridge located approximately 1.2 km (0.75 mi) northwest of the Kosciuszko Bridge or the Grand Avenue Bridge located approximately 2.1 km (1.3 mi) southeast of the Kosciuszko Bridge. In Brooklyn, Meeker Avenue, Thomas Street, Cherry Street and Anthony Street provide at- grade pedestrian access via sidewalks parallel to the bridge. Access beneath the bridge is provided at Kingsland Avenue, Morgan Avenue, Vandervoort Avenue, Varick Avenue, Stewart Avenue, Gardner Avenue and Scott Avenue. Sidewalk pedestrian ramps are only found at the Meeker Avenue/Varick Avenue intersection and the Meeker Avenue/Stewart Avenue intersection. However, due to poor sidewalk conditions and/or lack of sidewalks at certain locations, handicapped accessibility is very limited parallel to and underneath the bridge. In Queens, 43rd Street and Laurel Hill Boulevard provide at-grade pedestrian access via sidewalks parallel to the bridge between the LIE and 56th Road.
