Long Island City Alliance called out to Norwood residents to join LICA with a petition protesting MTA service cuts, especially cuts affecting the W train to Astoria, Student MetroCards and paratransit services.

Norwood Neighborhood Associaiton joined LICA at the N / Grand Avenue Station in Astoria this morning.

All 100 signature spaces on the petition sheets filled up in an hour!!

Already, trains serving Astoria are overcrowded. Cutbacks in vital transportation to Manhattan will force commuters into more tightly packed cars and with less frequent service, workers will have to leave earlier in order to be at work on time.

DO YOU HEAR US MTA!!
DON'T CUT US OUT!
