Not Enough Time to Cross
Not Enough Time to Cross
Mcguinness Boulevard - Norman Ave - Meserole Ave

Many different types of pedestrians at Norman Ave. Many kids going to PS 34. Elderly people going to library. This is a very busy pedestrian crossing. Lots of businesses on either side of McGuinness. Crossing McGuinness is dangerous here. Not enough time to get across. Sidewalks are narrow and crowded on either side. School buses back up on McGuinness during school drop off/pick up.

Mcguinness Boulevard - Mcguinness Boulevard - Nassau Ave

Nassau Ave is a fantastic asset in the community. Lots of cultural attractions, shops, bars, groceries, services. Significant pedestrian volume. McGuinness severs it. Stitch this wound back together with seating, signage, attractive lighting. Make people want to linger rather than flee the highway.

Brooklyn Queens Expressway - Bqe Wb En Mc Guinness Blvd S - Kosciuszko Bridge

No daylight under the BQE. At night the intersection is completely dark. Extremely dangerous to walk.

Mcguinness Boulevard - Graham Ave - Mcguinness Boulevard

Expand this square into a real park with benches, trees, bioswales, dog run. There is enough room here to make a great neighborhood amenity. The slip road off of McGuinness onto Graham Ave is totally unecessary. Remove the slip road and give the space to the park.

Brooklyn Queens Expressway - Brooklyn Queens Expwy Et 33 Eb - Bqe Eb Entrance Vandervoort Ave

No crosswalk or protected bike / pedestrian path across the dark, dangerous, confusing BQE intersection that is a high speed auto free for all.

Bqe Wb En Mc Guinness Blvd S - Humboldt St - Bqe Wb Entrance Meeker Ave

Drivers on McGuinness accelerate aggressively onto BQE on-ramp. Cars often start accelerating through lights at Engert, Newton and Bayard to race the lights at hit the BQE on ramp. This on-ramp should be REMOVED. It would hugely reduce the use of McGuinness as a through-highway from Long Island City to the BQE.

Meeker Ave - Humboldt St - Russell St

Drivers turning off Meeker onto McGuinness frequently cut through the gas station to avoid the red light.

Brooklyn Queens Expwy Et 33 Eb - Brooklyn Queens Expwy Et 33 Eb - Meeker Ave

Traffic calming needed to mitigate cars aggressively merging out of the off-ramp at highway speeds. Intersection under BQE is loud, dark and confusing to all (drivers, peds, cyclists).

Newton St - Mcguinness Blvd South - Engert Ave

Perfect location for pocket park or bioswale. This concrete triangle needs more greenery. Narrow or eliminate through lanes on Newton St to free up public space for traffic-calming bioswales.
