The multi-million dollar Passenger Station Renewal Program is set to go into action beginning this summer with major renovations slated for subway stations in Queens, Brooklyn, and the Bronx, The MTA announced Monday.

With $455 million vested in the program, as many as twenty-seven stations will get major makeovers beginning with the Hunters Point Number seven line this summer, followed by the Seneca Avenue M Line in Ridgewood, which is most in need of a makeover.

The M, A, F, Number 3 and 6 train lines are also online for reformation, which will occur over the next four years. Engineers determined which stations would be rehabbed by rating structural stability, stairs, platform edges, and other factors.
