Look at the 10 million elevators in Floral Park

The elevators are finally open in the LIRR station in Floral Park today. This is part of the LIRR expansion project. It only cost the taxpayers $10 million dollars not including the maintenance budget. The 3 new elevators from the street to platform will operate around the clock for all. This is the MTA's statement, The three new elevators at the Floral Park station cost $10 million, which is comparatively less expensive than similar projects in the subway system where utilities and stairs must be moved and in some cases, entire mezzanines must be expanded and reconfigured. This value was achieved by following the Design-Build project delivery system, where projects are bundled to improve efficiency and reduce costs.
