Shea Rd - Shea Rd - Olmsted Drive

Shea Road in Flushing Meadows Park should have a physically protected bike path. I often bike into the park at UN Ave N, then onto Meridian Road, north to Shea Road to access Citi Field for Mets games. There are places where cars have access and people drive fast and recklessly during Mets games and other events. All of these routes should have physical protected for those biking and walking here.

55th Avenue is the most direct route to 111th Street & Flushing Meadows Corona Park from Queens Blvd. Please make this a friendlier crossing for pedestrians and cyclists.

Lewis Ave - 99 St - 100 St

Lewis Avenue west of 100th Street is wide enough for a protected bike lane. Please add one here and continue it as far west as possible towards Queens Blvd.

56 Ave - Justice Ave - 92 St

56th Avenue is currently a speedway with two wide motor vehicle lanes. Please remove one of the lanes and make this a protected bike route between Queens Blvd and Junction Blvd.

55th Ave is extra wide between 97th Pl and 99th St. Make this segment of bike lane parking protected.

Bike Path - Grand Central Parkway - Grand Central Pkwy Et 9 E Wb

When I first moved to Queens and was trying to figure out how to get into the park this is one of the first access points I attempted. What a nightmare. Somewhat better in recent years, but the city needs to come up with a uniform way of dealing with bike/ped crossings at these highway spaces that doesn't actively discourage usage. Love that you have to basically run down a dirt patch across the highway onramp to get into the park, and that, once in, it's all parking lot and no park.

Brooklyn Queens Expressway - Brooklyn Queens Expwy Et 40 Wb - Bqe Westbound Entrance 37 Ave

A bike lane on Broadway would be especially beneficial here. A major crossing point between neighborhoods and extremely difficult to navigate through on a bike. There's bit of a hump here, so one is going uphill in both directions, pavement is atrocious and drivers are coming and going in a million different directions.

Long Island Expressway - Long Island Expressway - Lie Wb Entrance Woodhaven Bl Nb

The pavement under the LIE here is a nightmare, specifically in the bike lane, and exactly where it gets dark and difficult to see. Especially considering the west/north bound drivers often make a right turn here and a cyclist needs to be paying attention to the drivers coming behind them on their left. The pavement is routinely patched, but the right turning drivers continuously erode those patches leaving worse holes than before.

Broadway - Pettit Ave - 82 St

Broadway is another important connector through the borough. Any route that is a through route in this borough full of dead ends, train trestles and one way streets should provide safe bike access.
