Underhill Ave - St Marks Ave - Prospect Pl

The Underhill bike corridor has become a speedway for impatient drivers avoiding backed up traffic on Washington Ave. Morning drop off at the school has become chaotic for young children trying to get school. The neighborhood is mainly single family townhouses where the students walk to school with their parents. They shouldn't have to fear for their safety for drivers who won't abide the slower street design.

Bergen St - Underhill Ave - Washington Ave

red lights are frequently run at this intersection and it's really dangerous to cross the street because cars do not wait. also the bike lane is always blocked from washington to underhill, including the auto-body shop that uses the lane for broken cars

once this building was developed the crosstown bike lane was never repainted and it is constantly used for deliveries, double-parking, and generally creates unsafe conditions for cyclists. the road is also completely unpaved

Hello! I live on Bergen St between 4th and 5th ave. I’m concerned about what the bike boulevard will mean for parking on our block. I know the bike boulevard will benefit many more community members so I think it’s great, but is there a plan in place for resident parking? I drive 1.5 hours to work and losing parking on our block would be untenable. Perhaps a resident parking permit or other solution could work. Thank you!

Bike lanes and street safety improvements/hardening here will help so much with pedestrian safety! Drivers make fast turns without looking for pedestrians

Illegal Parking

Bergen St - Flatbush Ave - 6 Ave

Lots of illegal parking here from the NYPD restricts pedestrian space unsafely

Illegal double parking here and by the park leaves buses trapped and unable to move. Illegal cop parking encourages bad behavior by others

Illegal parking by cops makes large stretches of sidewalk completely unpassable by many pedestrians.

Bergen and Dean desperately need better bike infrastructure. The paved surface has deteriorated to the point of being dangerous. Squeezing in two full lanes of parking, a lane for cars and a bike lane inevitably means cyclists are exposed to potential dooring. At this point, more bikes are trying to use the road than cars. A bike boulevard would fit the existing use and make it safer. It would even have room for buses, I think, if DOT removes enough parking. Bikes and the bus can co-exist. So can bikes, the bus and cars that expect to share the road. Reconfiguring Dean and Bergen as bike boulevards would be a net-positive transformation.
