  • Representing All Hourly Rated Employees of the Queens Division, Who Safely Operate and Maintain Buses for MTA New York City Transit
    For Immediate Release: Tuesday, June 19, 2012 Contact: Corey Bearak (ATU 1056 Policy & Political Director) (718) 343-6779/ (516) 343-6207 ATU Local 1056 Makes Case to Make Queens Bus Service Whole Testimony to the New York City Council Committee on Transportation June 19, 2012 by I. Daneek Miller, President/ Business Agent, ATU Local 1056 On behalf of Amalgamated Transit Union Local 1056, thank you Chairman Vacca, members of the committees and other concerned Council Members present. I am ATU 1056 President and Business Agent I. Daneek Miller. My members and I appreciate this opportunity to outline the need to restore bus service outside Manhattan, where the City Department of Transportation focused on a number of initiatives in Midtown and along the East Side in particular. Our members – bus operators and mechanics – work for MTA New York City Transit's Queens bus division; we serve the riding public. Since the misguided and hurtful cuts to bus service in affecting any communities outside Manhattan, ATU Local 1056 has organized news conferences, rallies and other events with electeds and community leaders to urge the MTA to reverse harmful cuts and enlist Mayor Bloomberg in an effort where he remains largely silent. As many must recall, the mayor proposed private vans instead of the public bus service, and we all know how that went down; that dumb plan – another attempt at privatization – provided the Jay Walder-led MTA with some cover to refrain from looking at bus service restorations. We all know what happened: The MTA has refused to use the almost $100 million Federal stimulus funds (our tax dollars) it had available then to prevent cuts in service.

    Transit and Bus Committee Meeting September 2020 Committee Members H. Mihaltses, Chair D. Jones A. Albert L. Lacewell J. Barbas R. Linn N. Brown D. Mack V. Calise R. Mujica L. Cortés-Vázquez J. Samuelsen R. Glucksman L. Schwartz MTA New York City Transit reinstituted front door boarding and fare collection on local buses on August 31st,, ending a short term, stop-gap measure where customers boarded from bus rear doors, put in place to help safeguard employees and customers from health risks. Protective barriers around bus operators were installed on more than 5,800 buses, allowing front door boarding and fare collection to resume safely. The change increases bus capacity by 40 percent for enhanced social distancing. Additionally, the white safety line on the bus floor that riders should stand behind was pushed back to provide more distance between the operator and customers.

  • If Things Do Not Change, the MTA Stands Poised to Radically Cut And
    June 7, 2010 To the editor: If things do not change, the MTA stands poised to radically cut and eliminate bus service throughout Queens: Q14, Q15, Q24, Q26, Q30, Q31, Q42, Q48, Q74, Q75, Q76, Q79, Q89, QM22, and QM23, X51. Residents, whether riders or not, must united to oppose these misguided and harmful actions. As a first step contact your state legislator to press the Governor and the MTA. Second, call 3-1-1 and demand that the Mayor who found the time to tape a commercial to urge Lebron James to play here to prevail upon the MTA to restore these cuts. The MTA and its chairman/CEO Jay Walder refuse to exercise other options that would avert these cuts. Instead, they chose to balance their books on the backs of working people who depend on these bus lines each day. The issue is not money; it's policy. The public needs to know MTA chair Walder, once of Queens but late of London, testified to the NYS Assembly that he would NOT (emphasis added) apply new funding or saved resources to restore service cuts and eliminations. This is just an outrage. For many Queens residents, buses provide the ONLY transit option. Amalgamated Transit Union (ATU) Local 1056, which represents drivers and mechanics who work for MTA New York City Transit's Queens bus division, had made the case for funding. Legislators support the restorations. It remains a question of priorities. Senators Charles Schumer and Kirsten Gillibrand sponsor legislation to direct federal operating aid, previously denied NYC transit, to the MTA.
