Bike parking near the subway would be useful
Double parking is a perpetual problem on Bay Ridge Parkway between Fifth and Sixth avenues. A class II bike lane would be blocked most of the day. Please build a protected bike lane on Bay Ridge Parkway
There is too much double parking on Bay Ridge Parkway between Fourth and Fifth Avenues for a class-II bike lane. This block needs a protected bike lane and metered parking.
This meeting was not publicly announced or posted to the community, such as train station boards, local billboards, common community centers, but rather spread throughout the bicycling community. There was not a good representation of the whole Bay Ridge and Dyker Heights community, which includes bicyclists, drivers, non-drivers, walkers, strollers, etc. This would be a biased decision to just go ahead and add these bike lanes without a full input from everyone.
There are no markings here for cyclist or alerts to drivers. And the lack of curb cuts makes drivers think they can park here and block what should be a clean connection in the Brooklyn Greenway. Please make it a No Parking spot with clearly delineated flexi bollards or granite boulders to ensure riders have smooth connections here.
Lief Ericson Greenway has amazing potential to give the neighborhood an off street east-west corridor but the pathway is currently terrible. Parks dept needs to clean up & repave the existing path, and DOT needs to clarify the entry/ exit points. there's a clearly marked turn & curb cut at 3rd ave but its unclear what is happening at Ridge bvd/ 2nd ave. And when it crosses 66th st between 4th & 5th ave it has no safety markings to slow cars or alert them to crossing cyclists. Entire ride needs an overhaul.
We need a bike path on the Verrazzano Bridge. The access point in Bay Ridge should be through JJ Carty Park or 92 St.
Ridge Blvd. should get a bike lane to provide a direct connection with the under construction Owl's Head Connector. At least a southbound lane to pair with the northbound lane on Colonial Road
Adding bike parking at the end of the R line would help locals and residents deeper into Dyker bike to the R and switch transit modes.
Please don't add any Citibikes to Bay Ridge. I live here & am a cyclist & a motorist. It's already almost impossible to park.
