What problem would you like to solve?

The safety problems on public transportation in the area.

Why is it important to solve? Why is it relevant for the community?

It's important to solve because these are many train stations and bus stops in the community where you feel like anything could happen and no one would notice or stop to help.

What idea do you have to address the problem?

An emergency button at bus stops and in train stations that connects you to public safety officers. An app or hotline where you can request a community member to walk you home at night.

Who would that help?

Everyone, but especially women, children, and senior citizens.

What neighborhood would benefit from your idea?

Queensbridge.
