The Honeywell Bridge is an important crossing over the yards. This one way street forces cyclists out of the way down to Queens Plaza and all it's additional conflict points. A two-way bike route connecting Astoria to Sunnyside via Honeywell would relieve some pressure on the intersections at Queens Blvd and avoid salmoning cyclists.
People drive very aggressively and speed often on Northern. This location is only the most recent location I saw speeding/aggressive driving.
Mid-block jaywalking is a problem throughout the corridor. As a driver, I find it harrowing to drive here at night, especially when dark-clad pedestrians pop cross in front of my mid-block. Northern Boulevard should have a planted, raised median to calm traffic and discourage mid-block crossings like Broadway on the UWS or Park Ave. on the UES. Or at least a raised median with gaps that can serve as pedestrian refuges, like on Park Ave. South.
