Degraw St - Van Brunt St - Columbia St
Trucks are regular parked ON the separate, elevated bike lane waiting to enter the shipping terminal and creating unsafe conditions. They are typically in and idling. I commute by bicycle every day along this route, and trucks are parked on the bike lane several mornings a week.

Trucks and vans are regularly double parked and parked on the bike lane / greenway. I commute by bike every day, and several mornings a week the route is blocked and dangerous and trucks are idling.

Union St - 8 Ave - Grand Army Plaza Oval
Trucks use this stretch of Union St in both directions (eastbound, as well as westbound via either Plaza St or Flatbush Ave/Grand Army Plaza). It is very dangerous. They frequently block the crosswalk where Union & Plaza St meet.

Caton Ave - Westminster Rd - Argyle Rd
Vehicles, often trucks, frequently block the intersection, both crosswalks and bike access to and from the Citibike station and the ped/bike between Caton and Parkside. Bike connections SB from the Parade Grounds to the Rugby Rd bike lane is very difficult and dangerous with the truck volumes, narrow lanes and blocked intersections. Could there be a way to balance truck volumes between Caton and Church Ave? Could Caton be made a one (wider) lane, one-way EB for all traffic and truck access East and South and Church remain two-way but a one-way WB local/through truck route for access to the Prospect Expressway/BQE and north/west destinations? And Caton needs additional daylighting at all existing Parade Grounds t-intersection pedestrian ramps, whether signalized or not.

Atlantic Ave - Henry St - Clinton St
Traffic is gridlocked here almost every day, with trucks dangerously blocking crosswalks and the intersection, leading to a constant symphony of car and truck horns (which should be banned). Even on days when traffic spikes are predictable (Fridays, holiday weekends), there is ZERO POLICE ENFORCEMENT and not a single traffic officer to be found to remedy this disaster, which has only gotten worse since the cantilever was reduced to 2 lanes.

For the love of God, please fix the potholes on this street! It sounds like thunder and literally shakes our building when the steady stream of tractor trailers slam into the potholes.
