Observed Pedestrian and Truck Conflict
Observed Pedestrian and Truck Conflict
York St - Front St - Washington St

Charter tour buses illegally park in the safety zones. They drop off passengers, wait for 30-60 min until pick up, or take a left turn onto Front St. to wait and park in the Top View bus lane, which the company is not using, blocking the bike lane. On the opposite side of Front street is the end of line MTA bus stop. And then there is the parade of school buses going to and from Dock Street. Plus, all manner of trucks are trying to get past the charter buses parked at York. The curb is broken here. Opposite York Street is also a parking garage, and between all of these commuter interests, plus the backup caused by buses trying to turn off Front onto Main street, creates a large chokehold.

Bergen St - 4 Ave - 5 Ave

This is a very busy intersection, filled with pedestrians and bicycles, just a few feet from many bars and restaurants and nearby Barclay Center. It is an exceptionally unsafe condition to allow trucks. Also, it is an anomaly to allow trucks on residential blocks in Brownstone Brooklyn - in fact Bergen Street between 5th Ave and 3rd Ave is the only street in the area where this is sanctioned. With the construction of the large residential project on the North side of Bergen between 3rd and 4th, these unsafe and exceptionally crowded and noisy conditions will only get worse. These blocks are also critical components of the city-bound bike infrastructure, with dozens of Citibike docking stations nearby. They are also used by the morning Bergen Street Bike Train for Kids. And furthermore, why do trucks even need to use these blocks? Please don't wait for a study to be completed to make this important change, before another person gets hurt or worse.

Havemeyer St - South 5 St - Broadway - Brooklyn

The sidewalks are too narrow and trucks double park which causes pedestrians to walk into the street into traffic. This is a bus station hub and Marcy Ave subway station sees a lot of pedestrians volume. The sidewalk needs to be widened in the east side of Havenmeyer. Remove the parking and extend the sidewalk.

Two way cycle flow should continue east on flushing there is no safe place for cyclists to cross under the BQE. The NW corner of this intersection gets crowded with trucks in the crosswalk/bike lanes.

Roebling St - South 4 St - S 4 St En Williamsburg Brdg - Brooklyn

Large trucks speed to make this light. The area has high cyclists and pedestrians volumes. While the new bike lane is nice it is not enough. Trucks (including city owned vehicles) park and idle illegally here. Cars also regularly drive to the green painted bike path to get around double parked cars. Closing the on ramp at Roebling and connections Continental Army Plaza with LaGuardia Playground should be a priority.

Roebling St - South 3 St - Brooklyn

Trucks idle and double park. There is a school and elder care facility here it is not conducive for semi trucks. This truck route should be considered a priority for removal.

Bergen St - 4 Ave - 5 Ave

Trucks often speed down this street. This street is a fire route and a bus route, it should not also be a “truck” route. Trucks should be on streets with speed bumps to prevent them from speeding. City buses tend not to speed, and fire trucks have to speed. Trucks should not be given the opportunity to speed.

Ninth St - 2 Ave - 3 Ave - Brooklyn

Trucks speed down 9th St like they’re still on the freeway, ignoring pedestrian and cyclist right of way, driving on the bike lane and in several cases taking turns way too fast onto the road and running over the permanent jersey barriers

9 St - 3 Ave - 2 Ave - Brooklyn

Since the addition of the protected bike lane this particular stretch of 9th St cannot safely support speeding truck traffic. This particular block is the narrowest point on 9th St and trucks often engage in extremely unsafe behavior to maneuver through
