There’s been general forums, education forums, healthcare forums, and now another critically important one… PUBLIC TRANSPORTATION. Can you get to a bus or train safely? Can you even cross the street safely? From 10:00am-12:00 noon on Wednesday, June 19 at Baruch College you can ask the candidates yourself!
Thanks to Maria Pagano at Carroll Gardens Neighborhood Association for the notice alert.
New York City Mayoral candidates from all major parties will answer questions on a wide range of topics affecting the NYC riding public, the business community and industry stakeholders.
