The stop sign at Willoughby and Duffield St was removed for cars coming off Willoughby. This is very dangerous for people who are at the park with little kids as there is not a safe way to cross the busy street without hoping a car will stop for you. This has been amplified as the sidewalk on Willoughby is closed for construction between Duffield and Bridge st, making people cross willoughby more often without a stop sign or traffic light.

During the school day busses will stop here and completely block Lawrence St. This causes cars to back up onto Willoughby street. This usually happens around 3pm on school days when the busses park and block lawrence street.

Adams Street is such a hostile street design. It feels like you're crossing a freeway in Downtown Brooklyn and is not enjoyable for anyone to use except cars. The street should be redesigned and continue the center running bike lanes from the brooklyn bridge / get rid of the local access roads that constantly filled with placard abuse.

Inaccessible Destination

This area is not accessible to pedestrians or cyclists. It is crazy that NYPD blocks off this area and does not even let people walk through. This leads to a difficult area to walk through or connect to other parts of the community.

Drivers should be educated that they can turn right onto Lawrence Street and then left onto Metrotech way to access Jay Street. Currently drivers keep trying to continue down Willoughby Street to access Jay Street despite the heavy congestion at Jay St. and Willoughby street, leading to long traffic back ups.

The Traffic lights for Fulton st busway (eastbound and westbound) should be the transit only (symbols in black and white) to discourage drivers from driving down Fulton Street busway. This would make it much more clear to drivers they are breaking the rules and to not do that.

The traffic light on Fulton Street (westbound) at Hoyt Street (both street intersections) should be replaced by a transit only traffic light. This indicates to drivers that the busway is only for busses and they should turn off the street as soon as they can if they are ignoring signage. Currently the traffic lights are regular traffic lights which makes it easy for drivers to break the rules.

The traffic light at Fulton Street (Westbound) and Flatbush Ave needs to be redesigned to show to drivers which way they can turn. There should be a left turn arrow traffic light for cars turning onto Flatbush, a right turn arrow for cars turning right onto Flatbush, and a transit only (black and white symbols) for busses that are continuing straight down Fulton Street busway. The traffic lights currently contradict the signage (that is hard to see or read).

388 Bridge Street lost a loading zone for the 55 story apartment building. This leads to double parked ubers and taxis all day long. There needs to be a loading zone added back to 388 Bridge Street to allow for taxis/ubers to have a place to drop passengers off or pick people up. This was changed about a year ago and caused a lot of traffic issues on Bridge Street.
