Queens council member Elizabeth Crowley and Senator Joseph Addabo Junior called on the state Monday to approve the MTA's four-year capital plan, which includes restoring and repainting the structure that runs above Jamaica Avenue in Woodhaven.

"This train station serves a major purpose for our people. It's been deteriorating and it has been deteriorating since I was a kid. It's important to get it fixed," Addabo said.

"I firmly believe once this is repainted it will attract more businesses to Jamaica Avenue, mores shoppers and overall economic growth," Crowley said.

"It can be improved by a lot of painting. It looks like it hasn't been painted for a while. It's a little rusty," said one Woodhaven resident.

Addabbo and Crowley say existing structures should get priority over new MTA projects.

NY1 has reached out to the MTA for comment.
