All of Newkirk Ave. would be amazing to turn into a linear Park, like 34th Ave in Queens. We are just so desperate for a public Park in our neighborhood.
prioritizing buses helps get to these locations more quickly. As a bus rider I deserve buses that aren't slow, irregular, or stuck behind traffic.
Very challenging to cycle on this stretch of Parkside bc of car traffic congestion and double parked cars.
Cars are always parking in the no standing zone here I. The right turn only lane. It causes major car backups bc there’s no way to turn right when the right turn arrow light is on. You have to basically use the left lane (intended for going straight South on Ocean Ave) and then illegally turn right against the light. Dangerous of cars, pedestrians and cyclists.
empire is a very wide road. Enough for bus lanes to speed up buses.
It is very difficult to make a right turn onto Parkside when heading south on Ocean Ave. There is a designated right turn lane and light which is very important for pedestrian safety at this busy intersection. However the right lane is often blocked by illegally parked cars which backs up traffic, and I've often seen frustrated drivers turning against the light.
No sidewalk on north side of cemetery; Snyder btwn NY Ave and Albany!! They put in some short sections but there's long gaps and people trip on tree roots and construction garbage all the time. NYC Charter says all lots need sidewalks--if there aren't they're to be installed by the city and billed to the property owner, so what's the hold up?
Not sure why Martense st. is 2-way for the 3 blocks between Bedford and NY Ave. It also has no clear traffic lane lines painting on the asphalt, which means people double park and make it dangerous to drive or bike there.
No crosswalk on Fairview/Martense or Raleigh/Martense. It's so dangerous there because theres limited visibility for everyone and two way traffic on a very narrow street like Martense. I personally saw a woman get hit by a car making a right-hand turn. We need daylighting and crosswalks on these intersections.
This is the only intersection only Snyder Ave where it's 2-way traffice and it doesn't have a crosswalk or stoplight. People speed like crazy here and pedestrians have to rush to cross the Snyder traffic from both directions. It's especially hard for the elderly. Every intersection in Cobble Hill has a stoplight even with less traffic so I dont know why we cant have it here
