Local elected officials are pushing back against the DOT’s e-scooter program’s expansion into northeastern Queens.
Council Members James F. Gennaro(D24) and Sandra Ung (D20) are calling for the end of the program in their respective districts. The program, which expanded to northeastern Queens neighborhoods this summer as part of the expansion of the DOT’s Bronx e-scooter pilot program, has been met with pushback from community members across north and southeastern Queens neighborhoods involved in the expansion.
