It's really hazardous how narrow the new Brooklyn Bridge bike lane is when you get a flat in the middle of the bridge like I just did, NYC DOT bridges4people NYC Mayor's Office There's not space to walk the bike to somewhere safe to fix it alongside two-way bike travel.




First photos of people walking & running (and walking #bikenyc) over the Queensborough Bridge. What a great day for all of us !

Long time coming! Congrats to cmjuliewon.bsky.social on this major win for her district! One of my first tours as chair to the Committee on #Transportation & #Infrastructure was to this district. Several letters & hearings later, cyclists and pedestrians will now enjoy the Q-Boro bridge! 🎉

So glad this finally happened! Thank you cmjuliewon.bsky.social, NYC DOT and Queens Borough President Donovan Richards for providing more space on the Queensborough Bridge for people! A long time since this was announced in 2021.


Thank you for all your work on this, NY State Senator Kristen Gonzalez !



Bridges! 👏 For! 👏 People! 👏 bridges4people "The redesign makes the Queensboro the third city span to separate cyclists and pedestrians in recent years, following the Brooklyn Bridge in 2021 and the Washington Bridge over the Harlem River in 2024." gothamist.com/news/new-queen…
