Senator Phillips’ Statement on Latest LIRR Service Disruption
May 30, 2017
“The ‘summer of hell’ is already beginning for Long Island commuters, with yet another Amtrak infrastructure failure causing massive LIRR service disruptions.
Commuters are fed up, and rightfully so. They’re dealing with unacceptable conditions and will be forced to deal with reduced service all summer long because of construction at Penn Station.
LIRR riders deserve better, starting with a fare reduction, because they are not getting the service they paid for. The MTA and Amtrak must work together to improve conditions for commuters, now.”
