Van Dyke St - Conover St - Barnell St

The cobblestone here chronically has potholes here. Deep ones that are bad for both cars and pedestrians

Van Brunt St - Dikeman St - Coffey St

People constantly park or stop here blocking/creating a blind spot for coming from Coffey onto Van Brunt. We need to add those stick posts to keep cars from pulling over or parking there.

Bay St - Hicks St - Henry St

Need stop sign and/or speed bumps along Bay Street! This is major pedestrian area with fields and Rex center but cars and trucks speed through here.

Richards St - Pioneer St - Brooklyn

There is not a stop sign here and there is also not a crosswalk here, so it is not possible for children to safely cross the street to access the park and playground. There really should be a crosswalk because it is the main way for families to get to the park and to the playground.

Wolcott St - Richards St - Van Brunt St - Brooklyn

Between Richards and VanBrunt there used to be a sign that said that Wolcott Street is not for trucks (except Delivery Trucks), but I've noticed that the sign is gone. Please add the sign back to this street - it is a street with an Elementary School and there is no reason for trucks to be on this street.

Trucks try and fail to make impossible turns here all the time. It's a constant disturbance at all hours.

Gowanus Expressway Exit 25 Eb - Gowanus Expressway - Bklyn Btry Tnnl En Hamilton Ave

The 9th street crosswalk signal under the BQE is no where near long enough. If you are able-bodied and you hustle, you might make it across in one cycle. Anyone with a stroller, wheelchair, child, elderly person, groceries, or anything else inhibiting their ability to walk at a very brisk pace will be stuck under the BQE where there is loud, fast traffic on all sides. The area where the crosswalk crosses is also dirty, poorly kept with uneven surfaces covered in bird feces, and is generally unpleasant and feels unsafe at times. I feel fairly confident there are no predominantly white neighborhoods that lack this very very basic accessibility consideration. It’s a shame and a little embarrassing for the city.
