Freeman St - Franklin St - Manhattan Ave

This map is old. There is too much going on Freeman St. This is a residential street that is increasingly being used as a cut through, over traveling on commercial McGuinness and Manhattan. There is heavy motorist traffic at rush hours, with buses and commercial vehicles taking over the highly utilized bike lane. Motorists travel too fast from the light and bikers go the wrong way. There are frequently double parked vehicles blocking or partially blocking the roadway. This is not a truck route street and measures should be taken to re-route non-local traffic, including buses.

Kent Ave - North 4 St - North 3 St

Since there is NO crosswalk from Metropoltian till N 5, this is an area where people cross one lane of traffic, one turning lane and 2 bike lanes. It is danagerous.

Flushing Ave - Bushwick Houses Pedestrian Path - Bushwick Ave

The wide, four-way intersection of Flushing Ave and Bushwick Ave is densely trafficked with both commercial truck and commuter use. Drivers heading Northwest on Bushwick Ave gain speed as they descend down the hill.

Union Ave - South 5 St - Meserole St

Extra wide parking lane, and on-curb driving to access both Gas Station and Car wash at this intersection makes for low visibility between drivers and other people using the street.

Metropolitan Ave - Grand St - Grand St

Needed speed camera on the Metropolitan Ave Bridge - this is a street! Not a highway. Especially dangerous is the width and lack of visual lane markings.

Brooklyn Queens Ep Et 32 A Wb - Brooklyn Queens Expressway - Williamsburg Bridge

Safer access to the Williamsburg Bridge for biking and the walkability at the intersection of South 4th St and Havemeyer St can't come soon enough.
