Important real news read: More New Yorkers Opting for Life in the Bike Lane, Biking has become part of New York’s commuting culture as the city expands bike routes and Citi Bikes become ubiquitous. There are more than 450,000 daily bike trips.
Are we providing bike lanes, or are we updating our revising our roads to provide for additional room that equally benefit drivers for motor vehicles? Safety and mobility for all.
*I suggest that this current council take a look at policy set to date by prior administrations, specifically Resolution 2017-67, (sponsored by Mayor Eugene Flinn) wherein the Village Council unanimously adopted Miami-Dade County’s “Complete Streets Guidelines” and directed that these guidelines should be incorporated into the planning, design, approval, and implementation processes for any construction, reconstruction, retrofit, maintenance, alteration, or repair of streets, bridges, or other portions of the transportation network, including pavement resurfacing, restriping, and signalization operations if the safety and convenience of all types of users (i.e., pedestrians, bicyclists, motorists, and public transit riders, including children, youth, families, older adults, and individuals with disabilities) can be improved within the scope of the work.
