Bergen Street, between Nostrand Avenue and Rogers Avenue, is an absolute mess. There is an overwhelming amount of traffic every day, with cars, buses, and cyclists all trying to get through. Double parking is constant, with vehicles stopping to pick up food orders and packages from UPS, while buses are running non-stop. All this traffic should be redirected to a major avenue like Atlantic Avenue, which is much wider and better suited to handle it. Bergen Street is a residential street, yet somehow it carries more traffic than Atlantic Avenue, just two blocks north and running parallel to it. It makes absolutely no sense. Something needs to be done to reduce through-traffic and make Bergen Street safer and more livable for residents.

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.

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!

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 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.
