Dean St - Boerum Pl - Smith St - Brooklyn

Please do not further disrupt Dean Street between Court and 3rd Ave. No buses need to run along this corridor and current residents/taxpayers are already frustrated by the changes recently forced upon us. The changes to Court St have made it more dangerous for our school children who walk to PS 261, 29, A. Fantis, Packer and St. Ann’s independently. Atlantic Ave is already one of the deadliest areas. E-bikers and cyclists don’t follow safety light rules or even stay in the bike lanes you’ve provided to them and drivers/delivery trucks are frustrated by the congestion at intersections and make fast turns to beat the lights often endangering those of us who are navigating all things on wheels as pedestrians. Post 3rd Ave where the B45 bus runs, is completely different from this area and cyclists have already been accommodated here with bike lanes.

Bergen St - Albany Ave - Revere Pl - Brooklyn

Please leave the street as is. It works well for all modes of transportation. Please relocate citibike hub off of Bergen and Kingston and put it on the at sidewalk between Troy and Albany. We do not need bike hubs 1 block apart! Give the parking spot s back to the hard working people of Brooklyn!

Bergen St - 3 Ave - Nevins St - Brooklyn

Please get the large trucks off Bergen St. Bike lanes are great and removing the trucks will make it much safer. There are constantly accidents between cars making left turns from Bergen onto Nevins hitting bikers in the bike lane who run the light, so removing trucks and lightening traffic is a good idea. BUT, please do not remove parking spaces. There is way too little parking in Boerum Hill as is, and the 500 new units coming to the block between Third and Nevins will make parking impossible. It is unrealistic to assume that people won't drive cars around here, as cars are a necessity in this part of the city for many types of working people.

Bergen St - Hoyt St - Smith St - Brooklyn

Bergen Street is a narrow Street in Boerum Hill. It is one of the few streets that go around the Gowanus. It is a high traffic Street especially for trucks of all sizes. As it is the traffic is backed up at different times during the day. It is also very residential and close to the train stations. It would be a disaster to have parking on only one side with a 2 lane bike lane.. you are destroying our neighborhoods and making it more difficult to live here. Delivery trucks are always here as are construction and repair trucks and others. The bus route is being considered moved because of all this. How dare you move a bus route that many people depend on and make them walk blocks to get the bus. What about the elderly and handicapped.. We already have a bike lane on Bergen Street and bikers at times go in the wrong direction. I have to look 2 ways before I cross a one way street. Having a 2 way bikellane would be even worse. Court Street has been destroyed. Stop destroying what we love about our neighborhoods.

Bike lanes on Dean and Bergen should respect the direction of traffic. Two way bike paths on a one way street seem dangerous to pedestrians. Also, delivery of elderly people by cab or car service should remain viable. Deliveries also need to be accommodated. Daytime enforcement of neighborhood parking permits would calm the neighborhood which is abused by commuters because of the multitude of available subways. Entry to the subways system by commuters should happen earlier where parking lots are available.

Dean St - Hoyt St - Bond St

I support the idea of a bike lane on these streets. It can be tough safely moving east west in the neighborhood. Tree and plant lif, notably water sinks to help vs flooding could be useful depending on the particular location. Greenery is always a win.

We do not need a bike lane on Dean Street anywhere between Court Street and Fifth Ave (I couldn’t select 5th Ave in the form) The bike lane on Bergen is problematic as bikers go in both directions (it’s only one-way)

Bergen Street already has a good bike lane and is congested enough by traffic stemming from the back up from Smith Street. It is also a bus route and by rerouting the buses will inconvenience many residents. These are residential streets and it will be a nightmare with honking horns and people fighting over limited parking access. Horrible idea.
