House Minority Leader and Brooklyn Congressman Hakeem Jeffries was back in his home district Monday morning to help ceremonially break ground on a federally-funded accessibility project on the G line.
Jeffries joined MTA Chair and CEO Janno Lieber on Aug. 5 for a ceremony marking the start of accessibility upgrades at the Classon Avenue station in Clinton Hill. It is one of 13 stations that will be fully renovated and made ADA-accessible through an $850 million program, of which nearly $500 million is covered through federal funding — including $360 million from the Bipartisan Infrastructure Act.
