The Mayor Eric Adams is failing our city and he is failing Greenpoint. We want a plan for McGuinness Boulevard that prioritizes the safety of our community NOT the grievances of Mayor Adams’ wealthy donors. We’ve had enough. Join us to rally and march!

There are so many scofflaws out there, but, frankly, it's so easy to bring them to justice ... with just a little #criminalmischief.

Given the state of NY bike lanes, I'm amazed by the parents who do bike. If we converted our bike lanes to curb-adjacent and protected, we'd welcome so many more people and families to biking

Amid rising traffic deaths, Governor Kathy Hochul “paused” congestion pricing, a tool that has proven to reduce traffic deaths everywhere else it has been implemented. She has blood on her hands.

NYC DOT consistently violates the state's Freedom of Information Law by delaying nearly all of the requests for public information from journalists — and must be ordered to end that practice, argues a new lawsuit filed by Streetsblog. nyc.streetsblog.org/2024/09/17/str…

Paint and plastic are not protection. Dangerous behavior from FedEx and *bad design* from NYC DOT This is the Mayor’s McGuinness. Dangerous, confusing, and unhelpful. While he’s still the Mayor Eric Adams Eric Adams should keep his promise to Greenpoint and make McGuinness safe.

Periodic reminder that NYC DOT's solution to a lengthly stretch of Greenway construction in 2024 is "cyclists use roadway" despite the adagent roadway which could easily accomidate a temporary protected bike lane.

Lawmakers in Northeast Queens pedaled a series of false claims as part of a larger effort to end the borough's e-scooter program, saying that they are dangerous and unpopular — a claim that is counter to city data showing the program is safe and thriving. nyc.streetsblog.org/2024/09/17/que…

Local lawmakers in Queens railed against a city e-scooter program in their districts, but their concerns about scooter parking infringing on ped. space were outshined by their false claims of danger, 25 mile per hour speeds, and lack of knowledge about the program.

The MTA's next capital plan, a draft of which is due out this week, is expected to include billions for new subway cars. I spoke to the folks at Livonia Yard in East New York -- at the tail end of the No. 3 line -- to talk about the challenges of maintaining the old ones.

My name is Fabiola, and I’m an unpaid volunteer with Transportation Alternatives and Families for Safe Streets. My son Bryan was killed by a reckless truck driver when he was only five years old, and I’ve dedicated much of my life to ensuring no other family has to feel this pain.
