To calm traffic, DOT should install bollards, large planters with perennial plants and boulders throughout the majority of Dean and Bergen Avenues to calm traffic, clearly signaling this is a “Bike Boulevard” and painting road markings delineating the bike lanes, parking spaces, and center islands in a similar way it was done in Underhill Avenue.

I am 69 and have lived on this block of Dean for 23 yrs. Since Covid there’s been a crazy amount of cyclists on the sidewalks even though there is a bike lane!! Did you hear me? Cyclist ride on the sidewalks regardless of the bike lane. Some justifying by saying they live on the block so they are entitled to. They obviously lack integrity but what are you going to do about this? You can’t keep the cyclists in the bike lane as it is and you intend to build a boulevard? Oh, I mean you refuse to enforce the existing laws governing cyclists on the sidewalks! Why is it that you, my mayor, give so much to the Youngblood and nothing to the elderly?

This intersection during rush hour about 5pm is full of impatient cyclists perhaps 10 at a time completely blocking the crosswalk inching into the intersection looking for a break to dart through the red light. If you can’t make an effort now to control this insanity what will it look like when the boulevard flood gates open for these scuff laws?

The solution for not being able to cross the street safely is called extended leading pedestrian intervals.

Really poor visibility at the intersection with Rogers and Bedford due to parking right next to the intersection. Hardened daylighting should be a top priority for DOT here both for pedestrian and cyclist safety

Poor visibility due to parking right at the edge of the intersection. Please implement daylighting and extended curbs with bollards here
