Working On The Railroad?

Apparently, In Floral Park, The LIRR Isn't!

Check out the News12.com story, Flying LIRR debris makes crash landing in school field.

Track debris in the school yard. Denials from the MTA? Our children in danger?

Thank goodness the LIRR has abandoned plans to construct a third track adjacent to the Floral Park community!

"Transportation on Long Island, particularly mass transportation for the 21st Century, is a critical concern," says Michael Uhl, candidate for Nassau County Legislature in the 8th LD.

"Still, plans to upgrade must be tempered by the concerns for the safety of our families, and the quiet peace and enjoyment of our residential neighborhoods."

As your Nassau County Legislator, Michael Uhl would vigorously oppose any plan to construct the MTA's third track mega project near Floral Park, and would insist that the LIRR "clean up its act" on its tracks.
