A LIRR bridge over a busy street in Queens 'is on life support' and in urgent need of repairs, according to a member of the New York City Council. DaveCarlinTV reports.
Council Member Bob Holden of District 30 called it a neglected 120-year-old bridge.
Trains rumble across it as cars and pedestrians clog the space underneath on 69th street near Queens Boulevard. Some debris has been caught in netting that was installed to keep birds out, but other pieces appear to make it through."It needs to get fixed," a woman said. Holden said shaking from trains overhead and an unrelated construction project below are making matters worse.
