Save The G: Give Thanks to Governor Spitzer and the MTA!

November 20, 2007

Give Thanks to Governor Spitzer and the MTA!

This year, we're grateful that the MTA has begun to survey its customers via its Rider Report Card initiative. If you didn't receive a hard-copy report card for the G line at your home station, fill one out online asap: http://enterprise.mtanyct.info/survey/start.asp

We're deeply thankful that Governor Spitzer has called off the MTA's proposed fare hike (though it remains to be seen what unlimited MetroCards will cost next year) - G train riders are already paying too much for second-rate service. Thanks, Governor Spitzer!

Happy Thanksgiving!

What's a Street Transfer?

Street transfers are a great short-term measure to increase service options at subway stations that are proximate but lack physical connections. Street transfers allow subway riders to exit one station, cross the street, and enter another nearby station without paying a new fare.

A street transfer is currently available at the F line 63rd Street station to connect riders to the E/M/6 lines at 53rd Street in Manhattan. There are many possible transfer sites that could enhance rider's options, particularly in Brooklyn. Until an underground tunnel can physically link these lines, we think street transfers should immediately be provided to G line riders.

Great street transfers-to-be:
· Broadway station (G line) – Hewes Street station (J/M line)
· Hoyt-Schermerhorn station (A, C, G lines) – Atlantic Avenue/Pacific Street station (2, 3, 4, 5, M, N, R, W, D, Q lines)
· Hoyt-Schermerhorn station (A, C, G lines) – Nevins Street station (2, 3, 4, 5, lines)
· Hoyt-Schermerhorn station (A, C, G lines) – Hoyt Street station (2, 3 lines)
· Fulton Street station (G line) – Lafayette Avenue (A, C lines)
· Fulton Street station (G line) – Atlantic Avenue/Pacific Street station (2, 3, 4, 5, M, N, R, W, D, Q lines)
