An advocate for Putting People First on Atlantic Avenue #fixatlantic -- sign the petition for a complete street and a safer community

[DHFixAtlantic @DHFixAtlantic]

Well said, @BKBPReynoso. It’s time for @NYCMayor @NYC_DOT to stop stalling, save lives, and #fixAtlantic. @TransAltBK @KathyParkPrice

[DHFixAtlantic @DHFixAtlantic]

Atlantic Ave has long been a Boulevard of Death, as 15+ years of campaigning by @TransAlt @TransAltBK has shown. Despite cries for change from communities and many tragedies, @NYC_DOT has done little for a safer Atlantic. Let’s #fixatlantic now! https://t.co/QjCBjxOgL1 @s_nessen

@capntransit Shouldn't be there, will delete — my apologies

Hi from #UnderhillPlaza where volunteers are painting Underhill between Atlantic and Pacific with @phndc_brooklyn!

The amount of 🚙 🚗 on the sidewalks of eastern parkway and Atlantic avenue just boggles my mind.

[DoorZone @D00RZ0NE]

This is probably the *worst* ‘bike infrastructure’ crossing @DHFixAtlantic but TBH there are 0 *good* options. #FixVanderbiltAve is the only place I’m aware of that the #bikeNYC lane doesn’t completely disappear right when it’s most important. (Currently blocked by construction)

👀👀👀 let’s #FixAtlantic

[Mike Lydon (mikelydon.bsky.social) @MikeLydon]

Great to see @NYC_DOT’s plans to not only implement Apolline’s Garden but also more comprehensive safety upgrades along Vanderbilt, Gates, and Atlantic Avenue. 👏🏻 👏🏻 👏🏻

[DHFixAtlantic @DHFixAtlantic]

@D00RZ0NE @NYC_DOT Atlantic Avenue is a deadly problem for communities in Brooklyn and Queens that DOT has ignored for way too long: let’s #fixAtlantic already!

[DoorZone @D00RZ0NE]

Hey, @NYC_DOT. This is how broken your street (@DHFixAtlantic) is
👇

[Antonio Reynoso @ReynosoBrooklyn]

Uh I think we already tried this at Atlantic Yards and 20 years later we have little to show for it but broken promises and zero accountability.

@KathyHochul I hope this same commitment is made for finishing that project, solving our homeless crisis, fixing our subways, etc.

[DHFixAtlantic @DHFixAtlantic]

Great that a developer is thinking abt how to #fixAtlantic: It's something @NYC_DOT and @NYCPlanning have utterly failed to do, and Brooklyn’s deadliest street needs a comprehensive plan for both old and new residents NOW https://t.co/0BbtIOMsYY @TransAlt @StreetsblogNYC @Julcuba

[DHFixAtlantic @DHFixAtlantic]

“The Intersection at Atlantic and Flatbush Has Long Been Dangerous. But What Can Be Done?” Step 1: @NYC_DOT can actually commit to #fixTimesPlaza and #fixAtlantic for everyone rather than taking baby steps on our boulevard of death https://t.co/D9dSL9KtzO @fritzed_you @TransAlt

[Antonio Reynoso @ReynosoBrooklyn]

Mechanical lock on my door was damaged. Called a locksmith. Comes to door, sees lock &quotes me at $225. I agree. He then adds $65 service fee+taxes & charges $100 over original deal. Guess who is now going to push to pass a law for transparent pricing 4 locksmiths......this guy!

Standing in middle of #FixAtlantic Reminds how #BikeNYC is ridiculously nimble when streets are closed or detoured.

[DHFixAtlantic @DHFixAtlantic]

How much longer must Brooklyn wait until you unpause Phase II of #fixAtlantic, bringing needed traffic calming and #bikenyc lanes to bike priority district, a project approved and promised years ago but has yet to even begin? @NYC_DOT @ydanis @BKBPReynoso @TransAlt

[NYC Mayor's Office @NYCMayorsOffice]

.@NYCMayor and @NYCParks announce over 100+ projects paused during the #COVID19 pandemic are moving into construction this spring.

Mayor Adams and Commissioner Donoghue broke ground on a $2.2 Million Saratoga Playground Renovation on the Brownsville/BedStuy Border.

[Lincoln Restler @LincolnRestler]

Had GREAT time w/ our Chair of Transportation & Infrastructure @Powers4Queens touring D33 issues:

- Crumbling BQE Triple Cantilever
- Need for York St F 2nd entrance
- Placard abuse in Downtown Bk
- Dangerous Mn Bridge bike entrance
- Atlantic Ave traffic calming
& we Citibiked!

Reading the replies here, it’s interesting that even people living in the vicinity of Atlantic Avenue, never hear what happens to the victims. These fatalities are memory-holed, papered over. That’s bad.
