Traffic coming off of 39th St here is super quick. As a cyclist, I feel much safer on the sidewalks than on the road.
Heading out to eastern stretches of Astoria, Woodside, and Jackson Heights starts here for virtually all modes. Would love to see a right of way built for all modes modelled after the improvements on Queens Blvd.
Connect Northern Blvd to the bike lane bridge at 34th Av
Difficult intersection for people walking
If Northern is getting bike lanes, add them to 33rd Street as well since this is a preferred northbound connection for cyclist.
I frequently walk and run up and down Northern Blvd. I have been witness to several close calls (and almost been hit myself) when trying to cross Northern or Steinway at this intersection. Drivers simply don't stop or slow down and they're often coming one after another and it's easy for a pedestrian to get caught in between.
long crosswalks at 36 St. A median and perpendicular crosswalks would help.
bus stop is at 34 St, but subway entrance is at 35 St
no crosswalk on east leg on intersection with 35 St
high speeds near subway station exit
