Please use the map below to provide any feedback, concerns, or suggestions you have regarding the Queens Waterfront Greenway. Please be as specific as possible.
This corridor will close gaps in cycling routes from Long Island City to Astoria to East Elmhurst to Fort Totten. Running parallel to the Long Island Sound, this route will improve transportation options throughout New York City's most diverse borough and enhance park access for Queens neighborhoods with limited green space. Connecting these neighborhoods with an active transportation network will particularly benefit Queens residents living within much of the planning area who are underserved by public transit access.

Need a bike route leading to LIRR since bus service can be unreliable for arriving on time to catch the train
Missing crosswalk and pedestrian signals
Hunterspoint Ave/49th Ave desperately needs redesign. The curbside unprotected bike lane serves as a loading/unloading zone. A protected bike lane on 49th and Skillman Ave would provide safe and easy access between the Pulaski, The QWFGW, and LaGuardia Community College.
These steps take you up to the pedestrian bridge over Cross Island. This structure needs to be ADA-compliant, so cyclists are encouraged to use this path as the preferred way to 35th Ave rather than riding through the park.
High traffic area. Please consider constructing a pedestrian/bike overpass to protect the public from cars/buses and to connect the bike lane coming off the bridge to the 7 subway station. Please also consider this as another connection point to the Greenway, downtown Flushing residents deserve a safe access to the greenway without needing to go north to join the (scary) highway.
Can you extend the 149th St protected bike lane two blocks south to connect with 33rd Ave, which is a bike blvd?
block 4148 lot 2 is owned by EDC
At the entrance of Joe Michael's Mile, folks often take a break at the benches. It might be nice to have a bike work stand, public art, and a map showing the greenway system in the area and connections to destinations.
There is no bus service on Bowne between Northern and Sanford; therefore, this section could more effectively support a north/south protected bike lane.
The Utopia bike lane is a class 2 buffered bike lane; simply flipping the alignment to place it between the parked cars and the curb would increase safety without any change in roadway space allocation.
