Humboldt St - Nassau Ave - Humboldt St

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

Metropolitan Ave - Orient Ave - Olive St

Lots of speeding along this stretch from cars and motorcycles, even when there are two red lights between the intersections.

Metropolitan Ave - Bushwick Ave - Orient Ave

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.

Commercial St - Franklin St - Clay St

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.

Nassau Ave - Hausman St - Apollo St

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.

Marcy Ave - Metropolitan Ave - Hope St

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.

Lorimer St - Meeker Ave - Meeker Ave

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!

Driggs Ave - North 9 St - North 8 St

Bike Lane needs to be repaved. It was patched up recently, but has completely buckled again.

Monitor St - Engert Ave - Driggs Ave

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.

Monitor St - Engert Ave - Driggs Ave

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.
