In areas like this, a mountable curbside bicycle lane will be routinely encroached by drivers traveling around double parked vehicles. Installing flex posts would be a better solution for bicyclists. In order to reduce double parking, we need more loading zones and additional/higher cost metered parking.

Does the Grand Concourse need so many automotive lanes? The Major Deegan is just west and we should not encourage drivers to utilize this street unnecessarily. With less automotive lanes, we could expand "people space" for residents, visitors and local businesses.

The bike lanes are always blocked due to lack of loading zones for residents/shop owners. There should be dedicated loading areas to clear the way for bikes and allow residents/neighbors a legal place to load/unload.

The entire length of Grand Concourse needs a protected bike path similar to what Queens Blvd has. These are nearly identical roads and cyclists on the Concourse shouldn't be treated as second class citizens because they don't drive a car. Physically protected bike lanes on the median side with stop controlled slip lanes are 100% necessary.

Great opportunity for a public space where people want to be.

This could be a great pedestrian plaza. Might as well expand the pedestrian space as much as possible, add seating and trees for shade.

Protected bike lane is a must on the entire Grand Concourse. Cars used bike lane to double park or for passing slow vehicles/buses. Physical protection is a must due to vehicles using buffered space next to median as parking, specially on Sundays with churches in or near the avenue.

Long distance, long wait, not enough time to cross, cars don't respect right of way
