Bergen St - 6 Ave - Flatbush Ave - Brooklyn

Bergen St. is vital for Bikers. Unfortunately, Bergen St. West of Flatbush Ave. is not wide enough for a buses and cars and bikes. Relocate the bus route and create a 15-mph limit for a single lane of cars. look at the constant traffic jam in front of the 86 NYPD Precinct at the intersection of Bergen St. and 6th Ave. The bus line needs to be rerouted. Thanks for your consideration, Tim

Bergen St - 5 Ave - Flatbush Ave

What most comments are missing is that the width of Bergen Street (curb to curb) is 44' between Carlton and Vanderbilt (for example), but only 34' between 5th and 4th Avenues (for example). This narrower width is not enough for two parking lanes, a bike lane, and a bus lane when a vehicle is stopped for pick-up or drop-off. It is also, as crazy as it seems, a truck route. C'mon!!!

Difficult Turn/Crossing

Bergen St - 5 Ave - Brooklyn

I watched a B63 bus struggle to turn onto Bergen and then struggle again to turn off Bergen just one block away. It’s a true waste of time and fuel to have this bus rerouted. It makes no sense on the route and wastes everyone’s time. Not to mention the increased noise pollution and air pollution on this block now. The traffic backing up on 5th ave, waiting for busses to turn is also a nightmare, and bad for business. This bus should definitely go back to the original route- turning on Flatbush.

Difficult Turn/Crossing

Bergen St - 5 Ave - Brooklyn

A bike boulevard on Bergen St is a very bad idea. The B65 serves all Brooklynites and visitors who cannot or do not bike. If we want to make biking safer, which we do, why not have the police department enforce traffic laws? Bergen St should continue to be a bus route for the B65, and an emergency vehicle route, and also have parking for residents on both sides of the street.

Flatbush Ave - Fulton St - Nevins St

Always a good amount of unnecessarialy chaotic driving through here. The double parking at Juniors often creates dangerous conditions with cars trying to zip around and turn right onto Nevins

Poor Visibility

Albee Square - Gold St - Fulton St

Consider daylighting here to prevent food trucks and other vendors from blocking crosswalk visibility at the Gold Street crosswalk on Albee Square

Jay St - Willoughby St - Fulton St

Fulton and Jay is really rough as a pedestrian (or biker). Street is VERY wide with huge, extremely faded road markings.

Pedestrian

Albee Square - Gold St - Fulton St

Sidewalk leading from Albee Square to City Point Entrance should be widened. Too tight for the extreme volume of people walking up.

Illegal Parking

Albee Square - Gold St - Fulton St

Wild illegal parking abuse on Gold. Street should be reduced to widen sidewalk, create room for bikes, and prevent illegal parking. Ticketing enforcement needed.
