Bike lane needed on kingsland to improve bicycle access to the Greenpoint Ave bridge

Driggs Ave - Monitor St - North Henry St

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.

Russell St - Nassau Ave - Norman Ave

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.

Humboldt St - Meserole Ave - Calyer St

So much speeding on Humboldt Street between Greenpoint and Norman! Heavy industrial use and disregard of 25 mph speed limit.

Provost St - Green St - Freeman St

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.

Manhattan Ave - Clay St - Box St

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.

Greenpoint Ave - West St - Franklin St

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.

Meeker Ave - North 8 St - Union Ave

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.
