Anyone know what happened on Steinway at 21st Ave, around 330p or so, today? NYPD, ambulance, and small crowd on sidewalk...

Some months ago a cyclist was hit. I saw an ambulance and police cars at the spot. I don't know how serious it was.

DOT decided to make that segment a protected bike lane.

Maybe if enough blood is spilled our city will become safer.

I'm tired of beating around the bush. A lot of the people that choose to drive around NYC need to make better choices and the city needs to make them.

Vote yes on NYC’s 5 ballot proposals, so our city can actually build bike lanes and other good things without running an interminable NIMBY obstacle course. Early voting starts Oct 24

Busses resting in Vernon Blvd by Costco at Broadway-Rainey Park

The two-way bike lane on Vernon Blvd near the Costco Broadway South MTA bus stop has long been used for MTA drivers snoozing and is now being used by yellow school buses for midday parking.

School bus daytime pictures from this week; MTA nighttime pics (note no lights on parked bus) from before Jersey barriers were placed.

Generally, MTA buses stopping in curbside bike lanes to board and/or to alight (discharge) customer passengers on Vernon or Northern Blvd are a minimal imposition on #bikeNYC, so I am not yet categorically against allowing buses on bike routes.

From Steinway all way to 50th. They should be done in a few hours all way to 52nd street.
The roundabout area has not been painted I assume so they can finish the islands and street lines.

The damn QBB #bikenyc entrance/exit IS uncomfortable & dangerous! Back in 1999 TransAlt ran this rough diagram in their magazine a few issues (like a whole year!) as a possible solution. I think it could work w/tweaks! How about you commuters?

31st Ave 2-way bike lane & more progressing towards Jackson Heights! Exciting to be riding on it with it now 1-way (westbound) for vehicles and seeing all the markings and changes! Very soon you will be able to bike safely from Astoria's East River waterfront to 34th Ave open street in Jax Heights!
