Would love to have a protected bike lane connecting 4th Avenue with the recently proposed 7th Avenue protected lane. Much of the existing sidewalk space along Lief Ericson Park is disused or poorly organized, and might be able to accommodate a lane.
It would be awesome to have a bike lane on the neighborhood's commercial district. However, double parking is a huge problem, especially between 80th St. and Bay Ridge Ave. Remove all the parking for loading zones and create a protected bike route
Double parking, especially on the N/B, uphill side make this a tricky are a to navigate, especially with drivers who are heading to or coming from the highway.
Shore Road's bike lane and parking lane should be flipped. A protected bike lane would help shorten the crossing distance on Shore Road. A narrower road would slow down speeding drivers. There is a problem with drag racing on this street. A narrower street would hopefully prevent it, or at least help keep people on bikes and on foot protected from the inevitable crash
Bike parking near the playground and basketball courts would be useful
A middle school is going to be built at the former site of Nathans at the corner of 86th St. and Seventh Ave. At a public meeting on March 12, a number of residents voiced concerns about traffic safety at this intersection. Many of those concerns could be addressed by eliminating on-street parking and creating a wide, protected bike lane on 86th St.
This bike path exists under poor conditions and there is no clear separation between cyclists and pedestrians. The path from east of the bridge to Cesars Bay needs to be fixed and expanded to include bike lanes along the pedestrian walkway.
Having a bike lane on Fort Hamilton Pkway to Catan would make it safe for cyclists to ride to Prospect Park and Back. As is there isn’t a bike lane from 75th street and Ft Ham up to McDonald Ave and Ft Ham. Once you cross McDonald onto Caton there’s the lane.
Following the Halloween attack on the Hudson River Greenway, some one place a large concrete chunk at the entrance to the bike path. The man-made boulder was haphazardly placed and forces cyclists heading in opposite directions into conflict with one another. Similar security measure to keep vehicles off of the bike path have NOT been deployed at Bay Parkway or Fourth Ave./Shore Road. This one appears to be little more than Security Theater.
The Class II bike lane on Poly Pl. is not a comfortable place to ride. Speeding drivers frequently drift into the bike lane, especially near the concrete median. The lane is often obstructed by parked tractor trailers that are too wide for the parking lane
