Parking in Bike Lane

Pacific St - Brooklyn Ave - Kingston Ave

The bike lanes are totally fine and do not need redesign. What needs to be done is strictly enforcing blocking the bike lanes. Also, the bike lane buffer is on different side of the bike lane on different blocks. Maybe narrower buffers on both sides of the bike lane is a better solution. The. Underhill bike boulevard is absolutely idiotic. It's a mess with two way/ one way traffic alternating is confusing, the pots in the middle of the street are useless and take up parking space. The speed can be calmed down with bumps and red lights. Simple.

Frequent speeding on Dean. It is used by drivers as an alternative to Atlantic, and drivers often are impatient, frustrated, and dangerous, letting out their frustration by speeding. Dean should have traffic calming measures that discourage this behavior

Barclays center is constantly blocking the bike lane with barriers, crowds, vehicles. If they require that much street space it should have been designed that way. In that case there shouldn’t be any thru vehicle traffic on this block. The parking garage should be shut down.

Difficult Turn/Crossing

For cyclists, this is a very long wait especially since crossing 5th and Flatbush require waiting at two lights. There are often long gaps without car traffic due to light patterns so cyclists often have to dash across 5th to save several minutes on their journey.

Red Light Running

Bergen St - Flatbush Ave - 6 Ave

This intersection is a disaster. The lights are out of sync with Flatbush and drivers going both directions block the intersection. There should not be turns here at all. Cyclists and pedestrians need to weave between cars in the intersection who are honking at each other.

This part of the block is always double parked, particularly by the ups store. Midday though the entire bike lane can be blocked and drivers get aggressive if you take the lane. A driver once threw water on me when we reached the red light at Roger’s because I didn’t let her by since the street was parked up.

This block is consistently double parked, blocking the bike lane. The worst part is by the UPS store but you can be there midday and almost the entire bike lane is blocked. I once took the lane and when we got to the light (red), a driver threw water on me because I didn’t wait to let her pass.

I completely support this project. It is needed for safety and will prevent cars from double-parking in the bike lanes

This stretch of vanderbilt desperately needs to be fixed. It is so unpleasant to bike down that I opt to bike in the middle of Flatbush Avenue up to St. Marks to avoid it.
