Bedford Ave - Eastern Parkway - Eastern Parkway Bike Path

The Bedford Ave bike lane needs protection all along the route as vehicles constantly stop on it, and it abruptly ends at Dean St approaching the extremely dangerous Atlantic Ave intersection! This needs to be improved! Cyclists are left in the middle of traffic merging from Rogers Ave onto Bedford Ave at Dean St, and this is very dangerous!

Church Ave - Mcdonald Ave - Beverley Rd - Brooklyn

As a major thoroughfare through many busy neighborhoods, Church Avenue should be targeted as a high priority for protected bike lanes and monitored bus lanes. As it is now, it is harrowing to bike on that corridor, and riding the bus takes way too long. This should be a model for forward thinking infrastructure planning that prioritizes pedestrians, cyclists, and transit users, all of who represent a majority of people living in this area.

Eastern Parkway - Bedford Ave - Rogers Ave

It's nice the bedford ave path exists, but it's tough to use because it's not protected. Parts of this route are extremely treacherous. Cars speed and use the bike lane to pass.

Flatbush Ave - East Drive - Empire Boulevard

Some of this stretch has bike lanes but they are unsafe. Cars speed agressively. They need to be on this whole stretch and separated from traffic.

Flatbush Ave - Ocean Ave - Lefferts Ave

Flatbush ave south of empire desperate needs bike lines connecting to the bike lines around the park. It's super dangerous going between the bike lanes north of empire and the street south of empire, you have to cross a bunch of traffic. Parkside also should have a bikelane since it will be the connection between prospect park and the nearest citibike station.

Empire Boulevard - Mc Keever Pl - Bedford Ave

This entire segment should be added, connecting the Empire Blvd bike lane (which is dangerous and should be protected) with the amazing, protected bike lane down Flatbush Ave.

18 Ave - Ocean Parkway - Ocean Parkway

I would like to see a safe way to bike across from the Cortelyou area around the Q train stop at Cortelyou, to the Ocean Parkway bike lane.

Ocean Ave - East Lake Drive - East Drive

Despite having a bicycle lane, this section of Ocean Ave is usually filled with vehicles (mostly delivery vehicles, some for-hire transportation) parked in the bicycle lane, making it effectively unusable as a bicycle route. A protected lane, perhaps a protected two-way lane on one side, combined with loading ones, would significantly improve the usability of this avenue.

Mcdonald Ave - Cortelyou Rd - Mcdonald Ave

An east-west protected bicycle lane on Cortelyou would connect with existing north-south lanes and provide a connection to neighborhoods east and west through an established business district / "main street".

Bedford Ave - Sullivan Pl - Empire Boulevard

I actively avoid the Bedford Ave bike lane and take a 10min detour instead because I don't want to deal with the dozens of double-parked cars blocking bike lanes. Plus, this path isn't connected to any of the residential areas around it by more bike lanes so you end up biking on an side-walk.
