This intersection is treacherous. Cars are coming fast off the BQE and consistently DO NOT STOP at the stop sign here. Walking my children to school is harrowing every day because of this intersection.
Road diet please! Eliminate a lane in both directions. Add a bike lane.
A full road diet on McGuinness Boulevard is critical to improve pedestrian safety, calm traffic, reduce speeding and free up space for delivery zones, benches, bike parking and green infrastructure along the full length of the corridor. The number of moving traffic lanes must be reduced to one in both directions. McGuinness must be transformed from a redundant and dangerous highway to a neighborhood street promoting active forms of transport in a densely-populated residential area full of families and households that do not own cars.
The angle of the street here acts as a highway slip lane but on a local residential street. Since cars entire the street at speed, they are prone to blow past the stop sign.
Please make this just a single set of off ramps instead of two exits. It creates too much chaos at both intersections and is very dangerous for anyone not inside of a steel box.
The Meeker - McGuinness intersection is a chaotic mess. For cars, but especially for pedestrians and cyclists. The pedestrian island feels very exposed. The crosswalk timers are too short. There are crosswalks missing. There is no space at all for bikes. Cars use the gas station as a shortcut.
Impossible to cross. Cars excessively speed after coming off of the BQE, and when there's a red light they block the crosswalk.
We need to go with option B for the street redesign. Having two traffic lanes is dangerous and we need to narrow this road right away. Please work for the safety of the comunity, by going with the option that slows down traffic the most.
While it helps that there are turning lanes on McGuiness Blvd, it would help immensely if you were to install turning signals so that motorists can safely make turns onto residential streets off of McGuiness Blvd compared to now having to wait and gunning your engine in order to avoid oncoming traffic on the other side of McGuiness Blvd. While the recent addition of speed cameras should help, we should be more open to a Woodhaven Blvd and Queens Blvd approach in order to handle this problem. There is no need for bicycle lanes as there are other street options available that run parallel for bicyclists to get to their destinations. I have lived in this neighborhood for +50 years, and have lost friends on McGuiness Blvd as well due to deadly incidents with motor vehicles, but I also know it's not always the motorists fault. I feel with some more traffic safety improvements like I have mentioned will greatly improve safety on McGuiness Blvd
Trucks speeding through the light at nassau and mcguinness or using their breaks causing a lot of noise pollution in addition to cars and trucks all using their horns the moment the light turns green. I've witnessed several accidents on McGuinness heading north towards Nassau including a car on fire, a car flipped over after crashing into a row of parked cars, a car crashed into a tree. The noise level has increased and gotten worse over the past decade
