The traffic situation for the B16 is so bad, especially all down Caton below the Parade Ground. Can there be a dedicated bus lane, or can Caton be a one way street? I could walk up and down that whole stretch between Ocean and Coney Island twice in the time it takes the bus to travel that distance in the morning rush hour.
The Parkside intersection is often dangerous for crossing pedestrians and cars block the box CONSTANTLY especially during rush hour. In the morning, cars that are driving west on Parkside are always stopping right in the middle of the intersection, preventing cars and buses from coming south on Ocean, leading to swerving, honking, late buses. This should also probably be the kind of intersection where it alternates cars, cars, pedestrians only -- or at least have improved turning lights/lanes and pedestrian safety measures. I know this corner is part of the big bike lane update so hoping it will get less scary!
Flatbush gets insanely wide down here and is like the wild west. It needs center-running protected bus lanes not just for the bus, but to calm the street
Sullivan definitely wide enough to support protected bike lanes, as are many of the blocks around Ebbets Field apartments
NEED a protected bike lane on Empire for safe access to the park
Incredibly busy corridor from Eastern Parkway to Atlantic - should absolutely be a busway with no through traffic for personal vehicles
The portion of Flatbush from here to Empire could be an incredible business district - but the traffic takes so much away from the space. There should be center-running bus only lanes along the entire stretch, which would calm the street significantly, make it easier to get to and boost businesses
Missing crosswalks along Washington Avenue (at Classon Triangle, Crown, Carroll). It makes crossing the street really dangerous - especially for families visiting BBG or the Museum >:(
The bike lane disappears on Empire Between Bedford and Flatbush. It's so unsafe with the reconfigured intersection, and it's a missed opportunity to connect to the new Ocean Av Bike lane in construction and the protected Flatbush corridor.
This portion of Franklin should be protected bike lane along with the entire southern portion - traffic really drops off after Eastern Parkway
