TAKE LEGAL ACTION
We're suing to preserve your access to the public transit you rely on.
The MTA's elimination of nearly 1,800 bus stops in the Queens Bus Network Redesign (yes, we counted them all) has created barriers to access for bus riders with disabilities, health problems, and other conditions that prevent them from walking farther to catch their buses. The MTA has provided no evidence that people with mobility issues were factored into the plan, nor did the MTA make any mention of passengers' first- and last-mile (origin → bus stop and bus stop → destination) distances and travel times. We need at least 50 plaintiffs. If you have a mobility issue and have been disenfranchised by the elimination of your bus stop or change to your bus route, please consider being one of them. Follow the steps in the video below to submit a civil rights complaint to the Federal Transit Administration!
