Shutdown on the 30th Ave Line in Astoria
Lately, the MTA has become notorious for its ever increasing delays and has become problematic for many passengers that use the subway daily. The announcement that the 30th Ave station would come to an eight month halt came shortly after the N train had gone under construction for the weekend, which caused quite an inconvenience for Astorians. 30th Ave is considered one of the busier streets in Astoria, so I intend to find 3-4 random individuals near the station who share similar and opposing views. I want to ask shop owners, construction workers, college kids like myself, and maybe even MTA workers if that’s possible. It will be interesting to see if people feel that this is a smart move, and if they are eager to see a positive change in the subway lines in Astoria, or they might even express dissatisfaction in the service that the MTA has been providing lately.
