21st Street Bus Priority and Safety Study

DOT is initiating the 21st Street Bus Priority and Safety Improvement Study to focus on 21st Street from Queens Plaza North to Hoyt Avenue North.

Study Overview

Twenty-First Street in Queens was identified by NYC DOT (DOT) and MTA as a primary bus priority corridor in the Queens Network Redesign Draft Plan. It was also designated as a Vision Zero corridor in 2019 as a result of an increase in pedestrians killed or seriously injured.

In light of 21st Street’s importance as a transit street and the evident need for safety improvements on the corridor, DOT initiated the 21st Street Bus Priority and Safety Improvement Study. The study focused on 21st Street from Queens Plaza North to Hoyt Avenue North. This segment features three bus routes south of 35th Avenue and two bus routes north of 35th Avenue.

The study incorporated a number of public engagement elements, including this project feedback portal, a Community Advisory Board, and other outreach to the Astoria community.
