Flatbush Ave - Church Ave - Brooklyn

Flatbush Avenue south of Empire Boulevard is full of speeding cars and double parking, and would benefit a lot from a protected lane. I bike the route at least 2-3 days a week, sometimes 4-5, and on every single trip a driver does something (run a red light, swerve out of double parking without signaling, pass over double yellow line, etc) that could kill me or another biker. Speed and red light cameras at the lights on Flatbush would also be a huge quality of life and safety improvement - I've never seen a driver get a ticket for running a red light ever on that stretch of road, and I've seen it happen literally hundreds of times.

Ocean Parkway Bike Path - Avenue C - Cortelyou Rd

Cortelyou Rd is a major restaurant and shopping destination where many bicyclist trips go to! Currently, it's hard to bike there because of double parking and unsafe delivery unloading.

East Drive - South Lake Drive - Ocean Ave

Ocean Avenue has painted bike lanes in both directions, but it is so extremely dangerous to ride down due to double parking in the bike lane. The wide median in the center of the street means car traffic is not entirely blocked by double parking, so cars (and bikes) are forced to swerve in and out of the lanes. There is absolutely room for protected bike lanes in both directions on this avenue. They could begin at Parkside, where there is currently a planned expansion on flatbush avenue, adjacent to the park.

East 21 St - Kings Highway - Kings Highway

Ave P is a very wide street that cars fly down. Narrowing it to make a bike lane would be great for safety!

Empire Boulevard - Washington Ave - Flatbush Ave

The existing east/west bike lane on Empire Blvd/E New York Ave/Pitkin Ave is unsafe. Please improve the conditions by making it or a nearby street truly protected for safe east/west biking

Flatbush Ave - Parkside Ave - Clarkson Ave

The road is currently single-lane with two parking rows (one on each side) but is very wide (wider than it needs to be for a single lane of traffic - almost as wide as two-lane road) and would allow for the construction of a two-way bike lane on one side without loosing a lane. Protected would need because of double parking.

Lenox Rd - Nostrand Ave - New York Ave

Lenox Road is constantly filled with double parked cars and cars speeding, making it an unsafe route without bike lanes.
