Transportation a key topic at Sen. Gillibrand's Q&A at Snug Harbor

SILive.com: "We have had study after study" on the viability of a West Shore light rail over the Bayonne Bridge to connect commuters to New Jersey, she said, and asked for Gillibrand's support to include Staten Island in the Regional Transportation Plan.

With Sen. Chuck Schumer and others discussing the plan, "we really need to be a part of those conversations," Rose said.

Gillibrand agreed "it's not fair for half a million people to not have access to transportation and be able to get to the jobs that they need in our big city."
