Connecting underserved areas of Brooklyn and Queens, the Metropolitan Transportation Authority’s (MTA’s) Interborough Express will transform rapid transit between the two boroughs. The proposed light rail would be built along an existing 14-mile freight line and connect with up to 17 different subway lines and the MTA Long Island Rail Road. Join Vice President, Commercial, Abdo Allam, Assistant Vice President Design Executive, Daphne Lasky, Planning Director Jordan Smith, and Senior Vice President Project Executive, Charles Gans, for an insider look at the project.
