This area is a mess with drivers trying to force their way into the intersection, which blocks crosswalks and bikelanes. Would love to see the destroyed cars moved from here (most of them stay for years), and any effort to block the illegal parking to help clear the area up and make the intersection safer.
I support the protected bike lanes! I’m not a biker myself, but more bike lanes means safer streets for those not in vehicles!

This is for the entire length of Dean: a protected bike lane is crucial.

Cars constantly parked in painted "protected" bike lane.
Vanderbilt deserves to be a protected bike lane (concrete or parking protected) to safely feed into the new boulevards. The current painted bike lane is consistently blocked by trucks and cars, left turns via bike are not easy, the bike lane conveniently stops in front of building entrances causing cars to park there all day long.
I love the Underhill bike street, but am consistently getting into dangerous arguments with entitled drivers who do not want to share the road. More safety features and drivers education is needed to ensure this street stays a safe feeder street to the new bike boulevards from Grand Army Plaza north!
The bike lane is way too small for all the bikes that go through here. Any time of day, it’s very difficult to get anywhere. We have only a few streets with bike lanes that run for many blocks, but cars have almost every street. Why are we squeezed into a single thin segment of pavement when cars have tons of options?
I am in favor of the project, as a resident who routinely bikes on both Dean and Bergen. I am especially sensitive to how dangerous certain parts of each road are—especially when negotiating double parked vehicles, aggressive drivers, and car doors. Improving safety would significantly improve the livability of the area, and would contribute to community life—as has the bike boulevard project on Underhill.
