This street (and many SBS corridors) needs center running bus lanes for it to be truly transformative. If we constantly prioritize car traffic in this dense urban environment, we won't be able to sustain a future where we can end reliance on car ownership.
This intersection is a disaster for pedestrians, there are a ton of people trying to walk here and the cars are out of control. Cars fly by way too fast, and stop/park illegally, blocking buses. In addition to proper traffic enforcement, street parking should be eliminated. A dedicated bus/cycling lane would be even better, as would cutting this to only one way traffic.
Trying to head southbound of Nostrand Avenue on my way to school at 7 AM is a nightmare due to numerous amount of double parked cars and cars parked illegally in "No Standing Zone" between 7 AM to 10 AM. I see numerous empty NYPD cars and when I do see an occupied NYPD vehicle, I have yet to see any enforcement of the double cars and illegally parked cars. At this point, I am in favor of immediate towing of these vehicles if they are not gone after the five minute grace period of when the "No Standing Zone" begins, that or the NYPD demanding those who are currently occupied in their illegally parked cars to move immediately or be fined $250+. These car owners need serious consequences and need to stop being treated with kid gloves. They are ruining travel for everyone who relies on public transportation.
The bus lane schedule needs to be updated and last from 7 AM to 7 PM. Prioritize bus lanes. A dedicated bus lane means buses only remain in the bus lane and won't disrupt the flow of private vehicles heading do the single lane.
I have seen too many cars and trucks speeding near a school while heading north of Troy Avenue. There needs to be a speed bump alongside a school zone speed camera of 15 MPH for various reasons. The most obvious reason is to protect students and teachers who attend the school. Another reason is for when attempting to safely enter or exit a vehicle while parked near the school.
Will this scaffolding ever come down?
Drivers trying to turn from Bedford block traffic on Bedford as there is no turn lane. They then turn quickly into any perceivable gap, even if there are pedestrians attempting to cross. Similarly, the B12 often has to turn aggressively here, or else it will never be able to proceed. What if the directions on the one-way pair of Clarkson and Parkside were reversed?
