The left side of the street is an active business and needs a commercial parking/active loading zone.
New building is being built here. There was a loading zone that was removed without community notification. Now UPS/FedEx/Amazon and other service vehicles block the bike lane and car travel lane leading to backups, blocked emergency response, honking. Good to bring in a new loading zone before a large building goes here to help with the heavy number of deliveries to existing buildings on this block.
There is chronic illegal parking issue in the bike lane located at 862 4th Avenue by the business BK Wash & Repair. Vehicles regularly parked and idle in the bike lane to be washed by the business, forcing cyclists into moving traffic and creating an ongoing safety hazard for residents and commuters. What makes this especially frustrating is that this location is only about 400 feet from the NYPD 72nd Precinct, yet the problem persists daily with no enforcement. This has been going on for at least the past 2 years during which time my commute has me regularly using this route. I have also submitted 311 complaints regarding this issue, but the reports consistently come back stating that “no criminal violation existed,” despite the ongoing and visible obstruction of the bike lane. This response has made it difficult to understand how residents are supposed to address a problem that is both persistent and dangerous. The repeated obstruction of the bike lane undermines street safety efforts and puts cyclists, pedestrians, and drivers at unnecessary risk. Thank you for your attention to this issue and for your service to the community. I would appreciate any updates on potential actions that can be taken.
There is a dispensary, hardware store and bakery making deliveries and people picking up packages and trucks delivering to fruit and vegetable store near West 6th that can use a truck and passenger loading zone.
Double parking of commercial vehicles and passenger drop-offs at 16 Dupont St. residential building.
Manage a multi-family building with an indoor garage. Chronic double parking a major issue as they block our driveway. Many 311 reports are in vain as the vehicles are move prior to police arriving,
Manage a multi-family building with a parking garage and having a chronic double-parking issue where the driveway is constantly blocked. In a few instances, causing altercations. Calling 311 does not help, as the vehicles are moved by the time the police arrive.
Loading in one way street blocking bike lane and all traffic
Delivery vehicles are forced to mount the curb since loading zone is tiny and almost always blocked by parked vehicles. With new tree pits coming, and fragility of existing tree pits with vehicles parked close to them / on them, DOT should expand loading only zone to two on the block.
The Loading Only area created midblock is routinely blocked by parked vehicles, some with bogus placards placed on their dashboard to evade tickets. Besides, since it’s a heavily populated block, loading zones should be created at the start of the block as well, in addition to the one midblock — this is where delivery vehicles usually stop, mounted to the sidewalk across the loading zone since the small zone is blocked (as noted above). When it’s available, it’s too small for a delivery truck to move in and out of easily, so it should be lengthened.
