Image from Roosevelt Island 360

There will be a joint meeting Tomorrow night of Community Planning Board 8's Roosevelt Island and Transportation Committees concerning Roosevelt Island transportation issues including the F train subway service, Tram renovation, ferry service and proposed pedestrian access to Queensboro Bridge from Roosevelt Island. I hope they also look into the horrible state of the Roosevelt Island subway escalators as well!

Roosevelt Island 360 has some thoughts on topic, particularly on access to Queensboro Bridge.

Here is the agenda for the meeting.
