Brooklyn Paper spoke with candidates, George Sarantopoulos and Kayla Santosuosso to discuss their thoughts on transportation accessibility and affordability. Q: Funding and infrastructure upgrades are often complex and lengthy processes. What strategies would you advocate for to secure dedicated funding and streamline construction timelines to rapidly improve transportation accessibility in underserved areas? It’s my goal to build lasting public works and necessary infrastructure upgrades that will improve the quality of life of New Yorkers. Regardless of party, and location each councilman gets an equal amount of capital and discretionary funding, and I want to make sure infrastructure is prioritized.
