Drivers turning left onto Meeker from Monitor ignore the stop sign and do not look for pedestrians coming from their right. Please shorten the crosswalk and force drivers through a narrower passage to ensure they at least slow down and preferably stop.
N4 St should be turned into a Shared Street or Pedestrian Plaza. The intersection of N4 & Kent is SO DANGEROUS. Motor traffic should not be allowed to turn left onto N4 or to cross Kent here, it's always very unsafe.
Speeding trucks down a residential street. There is a sign at Nassau and Sutton that states "NO THRU TRUCKS" but they go through anyway. There are lots of families, kids, elderly on this block. Can we implement some speed bumps? Or better monitoring of the trucks?
Cars speed through Powers Street between Olive and Bushwick Ave when they see a green light at Bushwick. It's very dangerous, especially with a school and a senior housing building on these blocks.
Vehicles (trucks & cars) speed after stopping. In 2012, and 2017 - I have had two PARKED cars on the building side of the street - 100 ft from the curb, hit by speeding drivers and totaled. My car has been a complete loss twice within 5 years in the same exact parking spot. Cars notoriously speed after stopping. They put the gas pedal to the max. I have had fellow neighbors and citizens -complain, tell cars to slow down. There is no signage of a school the the end of this block. There are two speed bumps in the middle but they do little to slow down traffic at the beginning of the street. In both accidents, two cars were totaled - which means 4 totaled cars in the same spot within 5 years. ---- Raise the Crosswalks - turn them into a raised crosswalk like over by St. Stan on Driggs Ave. It will slow traffic immensely and deter trucks. Also CURVE the sidewalk on the PARK side out into Monitor to mirror the other side. It will deter cars from making tight turns while speeding after stopping.
Daily Trucks Ignore the "NO TRUCK TRAFFIC" sign posted on Monitor St. at Nassau Ave. Several Trucks go full speed after the stop sign now this block that includes PS110 public school. Large buses, cement mixers, auto transporters, large tour buses, etc.
The 2 signs clearly indicate NO THRU TRUCK TRAFFIC. Trucks use Kent Street all day and all night long. Trucks turning off of Manhattan Ave to get to McGuiness. My windows rattle all night long from speeding trucks speeding up at night to beat the red light that is at the end of the street. When the trucks don't make the light, they come to a screeching halt. This has to be monitored. The construction noise is loud enough during the day.
Obviously the pictures here were taken years ago before the condo boom at 5AM. All of Manhattan Ave. is overly congested with cars, pedestrians & trucks that have to supply stores. Trucks now having to sit in the middle of the street so that bikes can have a lane! WHY in the middle of this congested shopping area?? Get the bikes off the Ave. so that cars do not have to go into oncoming traffic over the double yellow lines!!!! This whole bike thing is insane. There are MANY nearby bike lanes they can travel without making an already overcrowded area absolutely dangerous!!!
Freeman between McGuinness & Manhattan Ave. Remove bike lane! Restore 'no truck route' signs that were there in the past! This 1 block has to deal with 2 buses now & extreme traffic off Pulaski. This street has had multiple accidents with buses hitting bikers, bikers going wrong way & bikers pretty much doing whatever they feel like.
Extreme traffic off Pulaski Bridge on Freeman between McGuinness & Manhattan Ave. Outside of this we now have 2 BUS ROUTES, TRUCKS including Bay Cranes going to their lot for the night, AND a BIKE LANE TOO!!!! This street has had multiple accidents with buses hitting bikers, trucks hitting poles & pulling down all overhead wires & cars running right into peoples homes!! This 1 block NEEDS SOME RELIEF!!!!
Metropolitan Ave. between Union Ave. and N5 St. desperately needs a two way protected bike lane. This is a major crossing for cyclists trying to get past the barrier that is the BQE overpass. Trucks, buses and cars speed through here once the light turns green causing very stressful conditions for cyclists and pedestrians crossing this complex, highway-like intersection.
When trucks take non-truck routes on side streets (like N4 street) they get stuck and block vehicle traffic, causing cars to detour into bike lane. The bike lane needs better protection to prevent motorists from using the lane. See here: https://twitter.com/MaxSholl/status/856524288324710402
Not much space for bikes with traffic backed up.
Cars move very fast on berry - need crosswalk similar to metropolitan
Traffic exiting the Williamsburg Bridge and turning left onto Broadway rarely yield to pedestrians in the crosswalk (traversing Broadway north/south) Since the reconstruction of this area we expected that this hazard would be addressed - unfortunately this has not been the case and the intersection is still a nightmare. A veritable pedestrian crap shoot. A delayed green would easily allow for pedestrians to cross safely without having to guess whether the traffic will yield to them in the crosswalk.
The 5 way intersection at the corner of manhattan/leonard/engert needs more than just stop signs. Because there are so many directions for drivers to look no one pays attention to the crosswalks. Its actually safer to walk through the middle of the intersection that it is to stay in the pedestrian walkway since its easier for drivers to see you.
There really should be a stop sign at this intersection for cars coming down Engert St toward Russell. Cars consistently speed through here, and there are many pedestrians walking or running down Russell to or from McGolrick park. It would be easy to cross this intersection and get hit by a car speeding down Engert without even realizing there was no stop sign.
Traffic approaching from the Bayard side doesn't see that there is no stop sign on the Leonard side. There is a cross walk for Bayard which leads motorists to believe Bayard traffic has to stop and so they pull out right in front of on coming cars
Drivers do not properly follow laws regarding pedestrians at this intersection, and often speed through (often times trucks). I saw this happen twice to parents with their baby carriages.
Double parked delivery trucks block buses and traffic for hours - often in both lanes- on Graham avenue in front of CTown. This causes congestion and danger to cyclists and auto traffic.
This is a dangerous intersection for pedestrians when walking west on Metropolitan and crossing North 4th Street. The cars make a shallow, blind right-hand turn and pedestrians do not always see them coming from behind them. Signage or daylighting the corner could help
Vehicles routinely run the red light here, particularly during morning rush/school hours. Vehicles traveling north on Rodney/Meeker gun their engines, as do vehicles making the left turn from Metropolitan Ave to Meeker, because traffic backs up so bad they want to beat the oncoming light. Pedestrians crossing Meeker are thus subject to erratic and dangerous driver behavior and must dodge vehicles when pedestrians have the right of way.
Cars parking at this corner block visibility of right hand turns onto Keap St, dangerous shallow turn is taken at high speed. Parking should be eliminated/daylighted
There have been numerous accidents at this intersection throughout the years, even multiple accidents occurring on the same day, just hours apart. The last few accidents that I am aware of happened on March 26, 2017 around 12pm and before that, Sunday March, 12 around 2:30pm. When cars are crossing Bedford Ave. from S.3rd OR making a left turn, they can't see oncoming traffic heading north on Bedford. It is a very dangerous blind spot! Bedford Avenue either needs a stop sign or a traffic light at this intersection ASAP.
Knickerbocker is two way North of Johnson, One way headed North South of Johnson. Southbound drivers turning left onto Johnson have no way of knowing that their light is not timed the same as Northbound drivers. As a result, the usual set of red light runners are turning left, thinking that oncoming traffic will stop. But northbound drivers still have a green light.
Northbound traffic from Kingsland turning West onto Meeker can't see/doesn't look for pedestrians in the crosswalk. The intersection is very large with a confusing division of the lanes, drivers feel as if they are already out of the intersection when they are approaching the poorly lit crosswalk.
It takes forever to get the light to cross the road. I end up walking down to the next streetlight.
The construction zone has pushed the sidewalk into the road, on a street where drivers are driving very fast with multiple cars spanning a single lane. The temporary sidewalk is frequently pushed in, or inaccessible due to snow or ice.
As a pedestrian, it's very hard to cross this street. Drivers turning right from Marcy onto Borinquen turn very fast & do not yield to pedestrians. There are few corners in Williamsburg I fear for my life, but this is one of them.
There is no crosswalk, despite there being businesses on all corners of the intersections, which means crossing the street takes a lot longer than it needs to, and drivers do not yield to pedestrians, even if they are about to cross.
Need a crosswalk at Noll St. and Flushing. It is almost impossible to cross during busy traffic hours, either because there are so many cars on Flushing or there are too many cars trying to turn from Flushing onto Noll.
There needs to be a transfer between the Hewes Street station and the Broadway station. It would increase mobility in the area
This intersection is desperately in need of a signal. The heavy volumes of pedestrians that cross this intersection (even more so now with the addition of the Whole Foods and Apple stores) creates the need. Vehicles are often jockeying for position around pedestrians to either turn from N. 4th onto Bedford or cross Bedford. A signal is also consistent with the intersections farther downstream at N. 5, N. 6 and N. 7.
Cars park where they shouldn't therefore keeping trucks and buses from being able to turn from Broadway onto Kent Ave. Traffic backs up and there is excessive honking etc.
Cars and trucks blocking the box on Kent Ave causes back up on Broadway and buses cannot turn right and excessive honking begins a domino effect up to Wythe Ave.
The entire Manhattan Ave. stretch is more than overloaded!! A bike path in this mess only adds to trucks that have to unload having to park in the middle of the street & cars having to go into oncoming traffic to get by! Who in the world thought of this?? To take a street frequented by pedestrians & cars & trucks & buses & now add bikes is insane! Put bike riders on streets designated JUST FOR THEM. They can travel much more safely & not have to be squeezing themselves between every moving vehicle & person!! Manhattan Ave. cannot sustain EVERYTHING & buses & trucks are a necessity there. Bikes can do just as well on quieter streets. How was all of this allowed to happen? Believe me, no one knows about this site & has no idea they can give any input. Everything is run by the real estate market...the Gold Rush is in full swing.
cars and trucks speed down this block in order to make the light at Nassau and Kingsland
sidewalk blocked by trucks.
Drivers frequently do not see the "Stop Here on Red" sign/line. Have witnessed many accidents almost happen as a result.
large trucks blocking road and creating noise pollution for the nearby residents
Speeding and running of lights continues to be terrible on this stretch of McGuinness Blvd. Bike lanes, eliminating commercial traffic should be options to help this dangerous situation.
Trash can needed at corner of Cooper park.
Kent Ave between N.4th to N.12th has pedestrians wandering into bike lane without looking, with infants in strollers etc, from towers or parkland, VERY unsafe for both cyclists and people. More pedestrian signage is needed, plus live traffic officers on weekends by park entrances.
This area of Bedford Ave has drainage problems.
Last intersection in this area of Bedford without a traffic signal. Heavy pedestrian traffic makes this a very difficult intersection for bicyclists, drivers and pedestrians.
Confusing 'Do Not Enter' Signs, since buses are allowed to drive down the block (but not cars.) This should be a 2 way street for all vehicles- cars and buses.
This intersation needs better signage, perhaps a 4-way stop sign is appropriate?
Trucks and cars (often going the wrong way) drive in Kent Ave bike lane way to often. Better protection is needed. See http://gothamist.com/2016/06/24/take_back_the_car_lane.php
need a more direct route to Pulaski Bridge from South East Greenpoint. Lots of pedestrians.
Trucks are not allowed on Kingsland Ave, however they are always on this street and they speed excessively in order to beat the lights.
Cars and massive trucks are constantly speeding down this block at incredibly high speeds in order to get to the traffic light at Kingsland and Nassau.
Last left turn to get on the bridge - people speed up. One of the densest streets in greenpoint.
Very busy bus stop
very busy bus stop
More benches severely needed! When the original benches were all broken they only put in half the number of original benches. And, this park has become much more popular in recent years.
The owner of the blue warehouse has illegal no parking signs posted on their buildings preventing residents from parking there in fear of getting towed. Please enforce the law by telling them to remove the yellow no parking or you will get towed signs
we need all of the bike lanes to be repainted in this neighborhood
this intersection has become very dangerous because the truck route is now a very populated area. a few problems--lots of congestion, red light running, heavy bike traffic, ped xing, etc. The red light camera off Greenpoint ave has been broken for years.
Would love a bus bench here
Since subway access is more difficult on the northern end of Greenpoint and the neighborhood is under development, a ferry access point would be helpful and could curb the demand for greenpoint residents to own cars and future parking issues.
Bike lane needed on kingsland to improve bicycle access to the Greenpoint Ave bridge
There is a lot of traffic on Monitor down to Meeker, and everyone speeds: cars, motorcycles, and trucks. With all the children in the neighborhood crossing the street to school and the park, we desperately need stoplights at the intersections on Monitor Street to slow traffic.
This four way stop is notoriously terrible - vehicles, including large trucks, blow through the intersection and often stop quickly within the crosswalks without pausing behind them. This is a heavily residential area with a lot of foot traffic and the truck route is terrorizing the neighborhood. Please consider rerouting trucks away from this part of Norman Avenue. Motorcycles are also a problem, and normal vehicles (cars) also drive recklessly in this area.
So much speeding on Humboldt Street between Greenpoint and Norman! Heavy industrial use and disregard of 25 mph speed limit.
Riding on this designated bike lane through heavy industrial area during rush hour is not conducive to safe cycling. This is a valuable route, would be great to nix a lane of parking in favor of two way protected bike lane.
Lots of pedestrian traffic coming from Pulaski Bridge need a safer way to cross. Additionally, construction vehicles from Greenpoint Landing tear through this intersection as do the Timer Warner and NYCHA vehicles making it more perilous to cross.
The light is too short for the northbound lane due to pedestrians crossing. Many people run the red light here because the northbound light is so short.
More and more trucks for construction in this area are using Freeman St. as a cut through.
Street Parking frequently taken up by contsruction and Film Productions. Hard to find parking in the neighborhood.
The light timing at this intersection does not make sense for pedestrians and is very confusing. I've seen more close calls for pedestrians who jay walk than I can count. This intersection is especially busy during the Giglio Festival, where many families with children try to cut across this intersection and are put in danger. A young girl was killed at this intersection. We need a better system for pedestrians at this intersection.
The car wash causes traffic to back up into the street shutting down the right lane. This causes accidents, honking and aggressive drivers.
Drivers run this red light ALL the time! Aggressive left-turning from all sides.
Trucks and cars turning left from Humboldt onto Norman Ave. have a difficult time, often requiring oncoming traffic to back up. This is particularly a problem because of double parked cars and cars parked too close to the corners.
Cars fail to stop at the three-way stop signs on a regular basis and the parked cars on the corners make it difficult for drivers to see who is coming down Norman Ave.
Motorcycles and other vehicles speed down Russell Street. The motorcycles are particularly noisy as they head to their clubhouse down a couple of blocks. They don't care what hour of the day it is! The corner of Russell and Norman is another problem spot with cars and trucks failing to stop at the three-way stop and visible reduced by parked cars on the corners.
This intersection is very precarious to traverse, i.e. crossing streets. Crossing west from The Nassau-Bedford-Manhattan triangle is unmarked and often confront cars crossing either of those streets with the intention of getting West of Lorimer. Also with cars coming from so man directions without a traffic light crossing from west of Lorimer from either Nassau or Bedford is dangerous with the merging cars + Lorimer cross traffic. Need a light there and I think the N-B-Manhattan Ave triangle needs to be extended all the way to Lorimer.
There is a pedestrian walk way and no cross walk. When farmers markets happen on Saturday it is very hard to cross. You need a stop sign here
Add crosswalk and pedestrian light at Union & Meeker. I've seen two people hit by trucks here.
Need crosswalks and pedestrian crossing lights at all street corners crossing the BQE!
Access from end of Java to Ferry is open intermittently with no indication from West St as to whether it is open. Need pedestrian access from Kent St/Transmitter Park
Cars speed down this block trying to make green light at Nassau Ave. and Humboldt. We need speed bumps or lights that can't be seen from the previous intersection(shielded by lovers like on Driggs and McGuiness
Lots of speeding along this stretch from cars and motorcycles, even when there are two red lights between the intersections.
When traffic gets backed up along Metropolitan Avenue at this traffic light, drivers will separate into two lanes to try and circumvent the long line of cars/trucks, often speeding to do so.
There is no viable crosswalk from Franklin to the corner of Box/Commercial street. This is a high truck traffic area across from a playground.
Cars speed constantly here. Many children cross the street in the morning to get to the bus stop and there is no crosswalk or stop sign or speed bump to deter speeders.
While pedestrians have the walk sign cars are racing to make left turns onto Marcy from Metropolitan across the oncoming lane of traffic and frequently come dangerously close to hitting pedestrians in the crosswalk who have the light and the right of way.
On east side of Meeker Avenue/Lorimer intersection, when it rains puddles form and always spew water at pedestrians. It is like a Loony Toons cartoon!
Bike Lane needs to be repaved. It was patched up recently, but has completely buckled again.
This is the last section after the speed bumps and stop signs. Motorists often see this as an opportunity to 'zoom' away. This street has many children living, as well as its proximity to the school that further traffic calming measures are warranted.
These crosswalks are often not properly regarded by motorists, as it is a route used to get around the BQE/meeker ave. It is especially vulnerable given its proximity to the school.
This is a one way street. Cars like to enter it backwards from Morgan Ave.
Gigantic puddle on NW corner. Cars must drive into the other lane to avoid it, pedestrians get splashed.
Drivers do not yield to the light and make turns well into red lights. Trucks blocking the intersection encourage other drivers to bypass them.
This intersection has become very crowded. You have pedestrians crossing, bike lanes in both directions, cars trying to make a turn off Kent Ave and cars also trying to cross along 4th Avenue to get to the residential buildings located on the pier. There needs to be better signage or a light to help direct traffic.
Since bikes can make left from 14th onto Kent, they should not have to cross channelized area to do so as that is generally illegal. There should be street marking indicating path for left turning bikes.
Bikes on 14th can go left onto Kent, but south bound cars on Kent get green arrow for turn onto 14th at same time with no clear right of way.
Bikes on 14th can go left onto Kent, but south bound cars on Kent get green arrow for turn onto 14th at same time with no clear right of way.
The bike lane on Grand Street should be separated from traffic (perhaps two-way on one side of the street like Kent Ave). Vehicles are constantly double parked and swerving into the bike lane. With the coming L train closure this crucial bike link to the Williamsburg bridge needs to be safe and secure for cyclists -- right now only the adventurous/ experienced feel safe here.
Drivers speed through Olive Street to avoid traffic on Bushwick Avenue. These intersections should have four-way stop signs, especially at Olive & Powers where the visibility is poor due to the angle.
The crossing of Grand St at Olive/Waterbury is extremely dangerous for pedestrians. Drivers perceive the crossing between Waterbury and Olive as "straight ahead" instead of a left turn through a pedestrian crosswalk. Drivers use this route as a bypass of traffic on Bushwick Ave and will speed right through the crosswalk since they do not perceive it as a left turn/yield to pedestrians. The crossing of Grand St on the east side of the intersection lacks a painted crosswalk despite the presence of pedestrian walk/don't walk signals. It's amazing more people have not been hurt or killed here.
Cars run these stop signs, drivers soeed down union avenue, very dangerous crossing and intersection. really needs a stop light and speed bumps.
This is the route my children and I take to get to the park on the waterfront. It would be great if there were a stop sign. It feels like such a dangerous crossing with poor visibility and lots of trucks.
This street N Henry needs to be one way from Richardson to Meeker. It's very narrow and always causing problems. The trucks and people coming from Meeker trying to avoid the construction ahead on Meeker are terrible. People get stuck and mirrors of parked cars get broken. Horns honking constantly. It's crazy. It wouldn't mess with anything because Humboldt goes one way the opposite way and you have Graham Ave and Kingsland near that are both normal two way streets. It would also be easy for you to do. Just put a one way sign up and a do not enter from meeker. Then you'd be done. All the residents agree that this makes sense. Thank you for your time. - Jeff Moore 25 N Henry St. 347-232-6136
Drivers come down Nassau Avenue and keep going down to Manhattan Avenue even though they should be turning onto Leonard Street. A more clearer or larger sign should be at the corner of Nassau Avenue and Leonard Street that this part of Nassau Avenue is now ONE WAY.
Drivers turn so quickly from Greenpoint Avenue onto Leonard Street that I have almost been run over twice.
This corner is turning really commercial- with a major chain market that just installed a sign. A traffic light would help protect cars and pedestrians.
Drivers on Driggs slow for this stop sign but often do not stop. In addition, large delivery trucks stopping at the grocery store often block pedestrians' view of oncoming traffic. There are almost always kids crossing here because of the park and nearby PS 110. It's really dangerous. I have almost been hit twice. Please, please put in a stop light instead of the stop signs!
Rachel's Corner takes up nearly the entire sidewalk with their fruit, plants, etc. They put out stuff for sale on either side of the sidewalk so that pedestrians can only get past single file. It's a pain at rush hour, and I can't get a stroller through which makes me think that the handicapped and elderly can't pass either. It doesn't seem legal. (In this photo, only one set of displays is out. Usually they a lot more bins and crates out, along the street as well as in front of the store.)
Needs a stop sign!
Needs to be a four way stop!
Needs a stop sign!
Needs a stop sign!
This intersection desperately needs a stop sign. There is a YMCA with tons of children on one corner, a police precinct on another corner and and elementary school p.s. 31 on the other corner. Cars go way too fast in an area with lots of pedestrians. Additionally, cars crossing the intersection on Lorimer must pull into the middle of the street in order to see if cars are coming down Meserole then pull out while praying that a pedestrian hasn't decided to cross at the same time. Someone's going to get killed.
Monitor Street along McGolrick Park is incredibly dangerous to pedestrians and cyclists and especially for children attending PS 110! Despite the new speed bumps and no trucks signage, large trucks still use Monitor Street to get to the BQE. They speed over the speed bumps and often do not stop at the intersection of Driggs and Monitor (by PS 110!!!!) They completely disregard the school zone signs. Could we get some flashing lights on the no trucks and school zone signs? I don't know what else can be done.
This is a major entrance route to the Kent Bike Lane (especially for those commuting across the Williamsburg Bridge heading north). There is no traffic control for the cars on Kent. I think there should be a light here.
despite some signage, drivers still turn in the wrong lanes
Bike lane on Manhattan Ave. is completely worn away for several blocks. Needs repainting!
This intersection of Maspeth and Woodpoint Rd. is heavily used by pedestrians. There is no crosswalk. The traffic on Woodpoint is heavy and two-way. Especially dangerous is cars using this right-turn lane and not seeing pedestrians about to cross. There is inadequate lighting, and at night, pedestrians are invisible. I've seen a man struck by a car here, even though he was in the crosswalk across Maspeth. You can see that sight lines are blocked by illegal parking on the sidewalk. With thousands more people living in new buildings east of this intersection, it's only a matter of time before someone is killed. The whole intersection needs redesigning.
Illegal truck traffic is constant on this two-way stretch of Maspeth Ave. (between Morgan and Woodpoint), which borders on Cooper Park. Better signage prohibiting trucks and perhaps a neck-down at the intersection of Morgan and Maspeth would deter trucks from using this illegal "shortcut."
Pedestrians are in danger when they attempt to cross, even in the crosswalk. At this intersection of two two-way streets, cars turn from three directions, often disregarding pedestrians in the crosswalk. Solution could be three-way stop signs and two additional crosswalks across Maspeth Ave.
Too many cars stopping and blocking traffic.
This intersection needs a stop light and crosswalk to make it safer for bikers, pedestrians and motorists. Cars and pedestrians crossing Kent have low visibility - especially visibility of the bike lane. The river/pier area makes it a popular pedestrian area. Cyclists do not yield to pedestrians.
This intersection needs crosswalks across Wythe.
There needs to be a stop sign on Wythe at this intersection. Cars usually make rolling stops at the stop sign on Wythe and 5th, and this makes crossing the street challenging for pedestrians at this intersection.
Metropolitan Ave needs a bike lane.
This intersection is treacherous. Especially during warm months, I see cyclists ignoring pedestrians and nearly getting slammed by cars or threatening to run over people walking all the time. There desperately needs to be a stoplight and crosswalk added for all forms of traveler
There are accidents in this intersection every other week. vehicles turning left from south 3rd onto bedford avenue cannot see oncoming traffic due to cars parked on the southwest corner of bedford avenue. there should be a no parking from here to corner sign or a stoplight installed. it has become a dangerous corner.
This is an extremely dangerous corner and needs a light. There are many kids, cyclists and cars with no right of way - this is an accident waiting to happen.
It is very difficult to cross North 4th to get to Northside Piers due to car, bike and pedestrian traffic in multiple directions here with no traffic signal.
Please add a stop light + pedestrian crosswalk. The traffic on the intersection of Kent and N4th is problematic and dangerous. We have a ton of people coming to the area for the smorgasburg/flea market, etc who are not familiar with the miriad of vehicles, bikes, runners and what not on the streets. Not a week goes by without someone being nearly hit either by bikers or pedestrians. As a driver, it is very hard to cross Kent Ave if one is on N4th. Please add traffic lights. Thanks.
Trucks delivering to Duane Reade pose a hazard for pedestrians and bikers. They not only block the bike lane but the visibility of those crossing. They should be banned from Kent. It would be less problematic if they delivered on N5th
Needs to be specific lights for bikers along this path. too many bikers blowing red lights
There needs to be a light here. Numerous cars are crossing a busy intersection into the driveway across the street while trying to navigate cars and bikes.
Half of the West side of this block is marked "No Parking" for no reason. Normal parking rules should be extended to the South corner.
Half of the entire North side of the street is "No Standing" from a time when this street was mostly industrial. There is no reason why such a huge area of parking should be No Standing during the day. Normal parking rules should be extended to Berry St
The end of this block is marked No Parking for no reason. The signs should be removed and parking should be extended to the end of the block.
The sidewalk is mostly missing from the South side of the street and cars randomly use it as illegal parking. The entire sidewalk should be replaced and proper parking signage should be introduced.
There is a no parking sign here and there is no reason why parking should be blocked in front of this building with a door. Please remove the no parking sign and extend parking to the CitiBike stand.
The sign here says no parking for the last parking spot on the North side of the street. That is not a fire hydrant and is just a water sampling station. The no parking sign should be removed and parking should be allowed to the white line.
Brooklyn Bowl has determined that they "own" the parking in front of their building and constantly put orange cones in front to "reserve" parking. City permits anyone to park here and they are not allowed to reserve parking spots. They need to be instructed to stop and allow anyone who wants to park there.
The produce business here is constantly parking their trucks on the sidewalk and storing palettes of their goods on the sidewalks, blocking the view. They double park as well and block residents from getting through. Saturday mornings around 9-10am are particularly bad.
It's very hard to see fast-moving traffic on Meserole when crossing from Leonard St. Drivers frequently violate No Standing Anytime sign on southwest corner of Meserole making it impossible to see into intersection. Please widen curb at corner to prevent illegal parking here.
It's very hard to see fast-moving traffic on Meserole when crossing from Eckford St. Drivers frequently violate No Standing Anytime sign on southeast corner of Meserole making it impossible to see into intersection. Please widen curb at corner to prevent illegal parking here.
Sidewalk way too narrow for the number of people on Bedford Av, especially on weekends. Consider revisiting Williamsburg Walks program and close street to cars.
Montrose is an NYPD parking lot just barely pretending to be a city street. Cars are combat parked three deep, and the precinct has striped parking stalls for the NYPD trikes on the sidewalk.
FDNY and NYPD block both sides of sidewalk with personal vehicles
Sidewalk is used as parking lot
Firefighters block the sidewalk with their personal vehicles
FDNY blocks sidewalk with personal cars all the time
Sidewalk always blocked by FDNY personal vehicles illegally parked with impunity
FDNY completely blocks sidewalk for personal parking
Cars fly down Kent extremely fast. There are often construction vehicles blocking/moving in and out of the intersection and cars stop short. It isn dangerous for pedestrians who are forced to cross the street because the sidewalk is closed.
Cars constantly do not obey the stop sign posted at this location. They either stop very briefly for pedestrians or do not stop at all before continuing through this intersection.
Speeding to get the green light. One of the densest blocks in northern greenpoint.
