Difficult to navigate this area after getting off the bus

Bay St - Columbia St - Hicks St

There was an 18 wheeler parked in with the engine on idling in the center lane on Bay Street on June 22nd in the 7 o'clock hour for at least 30 minutes. This is not acceptable, it's right next to ball fields where kids and community members are playing. I have a picture

Degraw St - Van Brunt St - Columbia St

I was almost struck down by an SUV turning left from Degraw onto Columbia tonight that decided just to not yield to me at all while I had the crossing light. This intersection's crossing distances are huge and it is very unsafe for pedestrians because of all the traffic. Please improve safety here!

Gowanus Expressway - Gowanus Ep Wb En Hugh Carey Tnnl - Brooklyn Queens Expressway

High speed traffic getting off highway speeding on to sidewalk because there are no dividers separating local traffic and traffic coming off highway

President St - Columbia St - Hicks St

Crossing Columbia on President, which is right down from a very popular park at Mother Cabrini Park is so hard.

Beard St - Richards St - Van Brunt St

Need an east/west bike connection between Valentino Pier and Ikea. With all the torn up streets and cobblestone, there's no good way to navigate this hole in the greenway.

Ferris St - Wolcott St - Dikeman St

Ferris St needs bike lanes! It's part of the Brooklyn Waterfront Greenway route. There should be some sort of bike infrastructure.

Conover St - Pioneer St - King St

Conover St bike lane (King to Pioneer), part of Brooklyn Waterfront Greenway, needs to be protected. It has appeared as a protected bike lane on every DOT bike map since 2014, but in reality, it has always just been an unprotected, buffered bike lane. Cars and trucks frequently drive or park in the bike lane and this is especially hazardous to southbound cyclists who are then put in the path of oncoming traffic. Put some Jersey barriers in the buffer!

Hicks St - Union St - President St

I would very much like to see improved traffic control here, particularly red light cameras and other automated enforcement. Ideally the volume of cars/trucks using Hicks as a bypass for the BQE can be significantly reduced – there are so many cars speeding through here at all times, running lights, etc. They should be down on the highway, not up here!

Do you want to show us the area in StreetView before submitting?
