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.

very narrow path with the fence low and a lot of blind spots for oncoming traffic
Restore access to the airport!! From this location it is a short walk to Terminal C and would benefit workers and local residents.
Throughout the corridor, protecting the bike lanes should be a high priority. It has been my experience in the area that whatever is possible, drivers will do. The NYPD seems unwilling or unable to enforce this, but it is a problem we can engineer our way out of. Bring out the jersey barriers!
Cars continually park in green space on this path, putting pedestrians and cyclists at risk.
Need to formalize this connection between Seaver and Promenade. There is a fence here mostly blocking access. Need to connect the promenade better to those walking and biking to points south like the ballpark, Roosevelt Ave bridge, and flushing meadows.
Need to add solid curb cuts for wheeled device, bicycle and pedestrian connection between promenade down through parking lots to Seaver way.
Two way bike path needs to be added to Seaver Way to connect promenade path with Roosevelt Ave bike lane bridge crossing. Implement this well before bridge north path is rehabilitated.
Add two way bike path to ultimately connect to 20 Ave! This was proposed years ago, so need to see it happen yesterday. Thx.
For the longest time I didn't even know that the extension of this bike lane along the water existed because you need to cross a street and ride on a sidewalk to get to it. It is not well marked where or how to continue along the bike path here.
The bike path over this bridge is one of the primary thing that prevents me from biking in this area. I live in northern flushing and in order to get to Astoria, you need to bike along this very narrow path along the side of the bridge. It's barely wide enough for two people to pass one another. At the western end closer to the waterfront, it dumps out onto a sidewalk and a wrong-direction bike lane that has not seen maintenance in years. It feels like a very awkward connection to an otherwise beautiful waterfront bike ride.
Do you want to show us the area in StreetView before submitting?
