Area of Opportunity

Vernon Boulevard - Vernon Boulevard - Broadway

The intersection of Broadway, Vernon Blvd, Socrates Sculpture Park and Costco is an over-complicated mess. There are so many traffic lights and short, disjointed crosswalks that the simple process of crossing the street becomes long, multi-stage process. It seems like the primary goal of this intersection is shuttling cars in and out of Costco, rather than allowing safe public access to the waterfront. At the least, the tiny triangle between Broadway and Vernon and 11th should be merged with Broadway. That would make the intersection simpler and safer to cross.

21 St - 31 Rd - 31 Drive

The kids at IS126 deserve a safer, calmer, less polluting avenue outside their school.

Dangerous Left Turn

04/21/2021 - 18:37

21 St - 40 Ave - 41 Ave

Making a left turn along 21st Street is difficult at best. The speed at which traffic moves and the number of drivers running red lights is dangerous.

Aggressive Drivers

Broadway - 14 St - 21 St

The block in Broadway bounded by 21st street and Vernon Blvd. is hazardous for speeding vehicles. The wide ROW with minimal traffic is the perfect area to speed in a dangerous manner.

This intersection has poor timining which causes vehicles to congest into Hoyt Ave North. Congestion is further affected by vehicles exiting from Rt.278.

21 St - 34 Ave - 35 Ave

The block bounded by 34th Ave and and 35th Ave is congest due to DSNY truck parked along the southbound side of 21st St. In addition, NYPD has utilized the sidewalk as parking space limiting pedestrian accesibility.
