Queens Borough Day

Queens Borough Day

To kick off our Summer of Organizing, we're heading out to the biggest borough on the map for Queens Borough Day on Tuesday, June 7! We've got two 'Queens-sized' Riders Alliance event options for you to join us at in person that day:

  • Noon-1pm Bus Shelter Ad Launch Party — We're unveiling 3 brand-new #BetterBuses bus ads, generously gifted to us by JCDecaux, to be posted at bus shelters all across the city!

    Join local members, riders, and elected officials for the big reveal at Jamaica Archer subway station! Pick up a t-shirt with our still-new logo if you don’t have one yet. (And, yes, there will be food 😉)

  • 5:30pm-7pm Queens Borough Day Happy Hour — Can’t get away during the workday? Join RA staff and members from Queens and around NYC in Long Island City at Top Quality!

RSVP for one of our Queens Borough Day events today and be on the lookout for even more ways to participate (details coming soon)!

Bus rider storybook launch

Bus rider storybook launch

Join bus riders and advocates for the release of Bus Rider Blues, a book about the frustrations and challenges bus riders face every single day.

We’ll convene outside of City Hall to make sure rider voices are heard by the incoming Mayor! With cocoa and winter cheer, we’ll read bus rider stories and speak out about the policy changes needed from our next Mayor to put bus riders first on our city streets.

Riders Alliance Gala

Every year, we host a Party for Public Transit — a benefit that brings the Riders Alliance community together for an evening of live music, transit-themed cocktails, games, and well-earned fun!
