Trucks in Residential Area
10/17/2024 - 08:10
Kingsland Ave - Driggs Ave - Nassau Ave
Trucks constantly ignoring NO TRUCKS signage, blowing through this residential street that is in a SCHOOL ZONE. It’s right next to PS 110, there are little children, and also right next to McGolrick Park. It is so unsafe. The speed bumps are placed mid block so it doesn’t really prevent speeding, and whenever these speeding trucks hit the bumps they don’t slow down. You can hear ALL the cargo they have loaded shake with the weight. Oftentimes you can feel the impact from inside the side buildings, it’s that bad. PLEASE do something about this street, it is crazy to think how unsafe these streets are right next to a school.

lifelong New Yorker, 3d Gen...and I drive. Do you know anything about New Yorkers? Their disposition? Their impatience, Type A personalities and driving style? In a moment they will back up, take illegal U turns, go the wrong way down a 1 way street to escape even the briefest slowdown. They will divert the moment mcguiness slows down well before they hit Calyer, taking Freeman, Huron, Java and our other local streets. They will jam Manhattan Ave and Lorimer. WAZE will direct them to do this. The diverted trucks will be worse. There are enormous highrise construction projects underway on West St. How will trucks deliver to and egress those sites? They will illegally run thru our local streets or in the middle of the night

Mcguinness Boulevard - Greenpoint Ave - Calyer St - Brooklyn
I fully support a safer McGuinness Boulevard and appreciate many of the improvements in the proposed plans. However, there is a lot of room for improvement to ensure the parking protected bike lanes along McGuinness Boulevard provide an accessible path of travel from vehicles to the sidewalk and prevent unnecessary pedestrian/cyclist conflict. This includes a few design considerations: 1) The buffer should be at least 4 or 5 feet wide (depending on constraints) so that it is traversable by people using wheelchairs or other mobility devices and provides safe and comfortable area for people exiting/entering vehicles; 2) Any flexible posts or delineators should be at the edge of the buffer zone next to the bike lane to provide the widest path of travel for pedestrians in the buffer zone and provide a tactile delineation cue for people who are blind or low-vision; 3) There should be designated mid-block crossings with curb ramps for pedestrians to travel between the buffer and the sidewalk - these should include tactile guidance and visual cues for both pedestrians and cyclists so that all road users are aware of the crossings and may need to adjust their speed/use more caution. The 2019 report by Walk San Francisco outlines design considerations in more detail: https://walksf.org/wp-content/uploads/2019/12/getting-to-the-curb-report-final-walk-sf-2019.pdf Thanks for your consideration and your public service.

Poor Visibility

Mcguinness Boulevard - Greenpoint Ave - Kent St
If installing a so-called protected bike lane, pay particular attention to bike safety at intersections made more dangerous by parked vehicles obstructing visibility of bikes in so-called protected lane, specifically in this curved section of McGuinness. Consider requiring right turns to be made from a to-be constructed right-turn bay that would also allow safe merging among bikes and right-turning vehicles.

Mcguinness Boulevard - Box St - Ash St
make cut in barrier between bike path and foot path to allow cyclists carrying bike up the stairs to continue on bike path
Dangerous Merge

Connector - Mcguinness Boulevard - Pulaski Bridge
motorists tend to speed off bridge into local streets here, cutting off cyclists exiting Pulaski bike path SB
Area of Opportunity

Mcguinness Boulevard - Java St - India St
reduce width of median to free up valuable space better used elsewhere (tree pits, green spaces, rain gardens, wider bike lanes, etc.)
Area of Opportunity

Mcguinness Boulevard - India St - Huron St
do away with median where it does not even provide pedestrian islands anyhow, e.g. alongside left-turn lanes—waste of precious space!
Bike Lane Requested
08/02/2023 - 02:33
Java St - Manhattan Ave - Mcguinness Boulevard
construct 2-way bike lane on west side of McGuinness from at least as far south as Greenpoint Av to Pulaski Br (i.e., allow for NB bike traffic from west of McGuinness to Pulaski Br without having to cross McGuinness twice)
