Dean St - Franklin Ave - Bedford Ave - Brooklyn

Please please add the Dean and Bergen bike boulevards! I bike on these streets with my toddler and I see more and more families doing the same. Biking is already at record levels in NYC so its time to install the necessary infrastructure to make it safer! If it was safer we KNOW ridership would increase even more.

Red Light Running

Franklin Ave - Dean St - Bergen St

Drivers along these thru-ways, Crown Heights to Prospect Heights, are extremely reckless and blow through red lights without even slowing down. Absent additional traffic enforcement, the only way to protect pedestrians is through safety-first street design.

As a cargo biking family in Brooklyn, any increased bike transit is better for the city! The more people we can get commuting on public transportation or 2 wheels the better. And the way to do that is through safe bike lanes and decreased space for cars. Thank you!

Dean St - 6 Ave - Carlton Ave

We need a protected and dedicated bike boulevard. Many people travel on this path on their bikes and cars do not respect space. Cars often run red lights, and block the bike path. As a parent of 2 small kids who frequently uses this street, I want to make sure we're safe when we ride here.

Please cross reference 311 complaints about parking before any remodels. This area is already riddled with a shortage of parking. Working families that live here have ownership and longevity in the community. Taking away their ability to park completely is unfair and unjust. Families consist of adults, elderly, and youth , is this plan to break up the family dynamic and create more broken home? Please provide sufficient data that reflects total living population and not just those who can access your link, to provide reasons for this change.

There are many residents that live between this proposed route, ages vary immensely. It seems the city punishes those who become disabled due to old age.

A bike only blvd will hinder NYCHA operations. Buildings will take longer to clean, resulting in more rats, but that will be perfect for containerization, so I digress.

As a pedestrian, what is in place to make sure bikes respect us as well? They ride in bikes lanes and sidewalks with no care. Where are their fines?

It's important to still allow residents to access their house or apartment via car, and to allow emergency vehicles to pull up in front of the home. Existing garages accessed via Dean and Bergen should remain accessible for residents. Street cleaning rules should be enforced -- they are currently ignored by most parked vehicles and I have witnessed traffic enforcement officers stroll down the street full of illegally parked cars and not write one single ticket.
