We joined @Streetfilms in #Queens to talk about changes we made on @34_ave which built on a successful Open Street to create a pedestrian & cyclist priority corridor that enhanced safety & created new vibrant public spaces.

Today we celebrated the opening of the new two-way protected #BikeNYC lane along the #BrooklynBridge. The lane, originally proposed in @NYCMayor’s State of the City address, repurposes one lane of vehicular traffic to accommodate the recent cycling boom in NYC.

Make way for buses!

NYC DOT installed Transit Signal Priority at 648 intersections in 2020, more than double the annual goal of 300 in the Better Buses Action Plan. The benefits extend to 36 bus routes in all 5 boroughs, including 129 intersections along the B82 Select Bus Service route.

Another NYT transit reporter with no experience covering transit. The Times does not respect this beat, and it shows in their reporting, which consistently lags behind the Daily News, the Post, and Politico

[NYC DOT @NYC_DOT]

Today, @NYCMayorsOffice released the first data analysis following the implementation of the Transit & Truck Priority Pilot along 14th St. The report shows that ridership & travel speeds along the corridor have increased, w/minimal effect on area traffic.

Yesterday we joined @MTA to announce the launch of new @NYCTBus-mounted cameras on the M14 A/D #SelectBusService route (currently issuing warnings) and to remind drivers that fixed-location cameras along this #BetterBuses route will begin issuing violations on 12/2.

[NYCT Bus @NYCTBus]

So far, travel times are dropping—down by 38%. And ridership is up—32,000 customers now take the M14 SBS, daily. We're also installing bus boarding platforms at key stops to make trips even faster. https://t.co/4qTqylFqSl

.@NYCMayor on the move — six minutes flat from Union Square to 9th Ave! Learn more about the 14th Street Busway at https://t.co/GvcIWjpFfk

[NYC DOT @NYC_DOT]

Preliminary data by @INRIX reveals 14th St busway keeps people moving, even on side streets: "... the displacement of personal vehicles to neighboring roads was negligible, but the time savings for the tens of thousands of daily bus riders was massive."
