Unsafe Crossing

Extremely dangerous crossing point on one of the only routes for pedestrians and cyclists to enter the park. Next closest access is Broadway to the south, or a long route around via the Flushing Bay Esplanade with all of its obstacles. Drivers come around that bend at full blast so even if it's clear when you start, a car could come while you're crossing. Should be a stop sign for drivers.

34th Ave is a MAJOR bike arterial to the park but this is only way to and from that route from the CitiField parking lot. Routinely used by bicycles, but heavily used by both pedestrians and cyclists on game days as this is also one of the only ways to walk there. You have to cross a highway ramp that's on a curve and just hope the drivers are not going 60MPH because they would not have time to stop if they come around that corner at speed and there are people there. This is just one of

There is no crosswalk or curb cut here at the spot where any pedestrians, wheelchair, bicycle would arrive at the esplanade. The shortest distance between two points so of course those who are able bodied just sprint across and are trampling desire lines through the shrubbery. Everyone else has to then decide if they can see a way to the right or left where they can get in. To the right it almost looks like you can, but there's no crosswalk or curb cut down there either. To the left it's even worse.

Willets Point Boulevard is one of the most direct routes to Little Bay Park and Fort Totten Park. It is super wide an underutilized. Adding a protected bicycle lane would improve access from Downtown Flushing and give residents of Whitestone a greener form of transportation

the bridge connecting the waterfront greenway to Northern Boulevard is awful. Better signage and more space can go a long way to improve the bicycle experience between these two major destinations.

Roosevelt Avenue is a main corridor for bicycle riders going from Corona to Flushing. There should be a better connection to the two neighborhoods than what currently exists (nothing!). An entire neighborhood is popping up before our very eyes at Willits Point. We should not wait for the neighborhood to be saturated with cars before making improvements.

The access points from the waterfront are terrible and extremely unsafe. In the current form, they promote sidewalk riding and conflicts with pedestrians. Ditmars needs traffic calming or road diet measures before someone gets seriously injured.

Please consider adding a paired bike lane on 81st & 82nd Streets. Currently there are no bike lanes but 82nd street is the bridge needed to cross the GCP to cross from Astoria to East Elmhurst. A protected bike lane would bring more Astoria residents to the incredibly popular 34th Avenue Open Street. It would also increase access to the park adjacent to LGA and the Hazen St/Rikers Island bridge

This area has barely visible painted lines in the road. This leads to car in the left lane driving into the right lane "naturally". This continues down 20th Ave west, with the right lanes becoming double wide. This area could easily be converted into a protected bike path with how much space is available.

81st to 82nd outside Marine Air Terminal has a huge wall filled with ivy and ample space to put an off street or PBL. Likewise, after the Ditmars elbow there is a little park and space on the west side to extend off street bike lane to connect to 82nd, and where ever the greenway goes.
