Bronx CB27: Death on the Parkway
Bronx CB27: Jan 1, 2022 - Aug 23, 2025
The road keeps taking
Two young men went down on the Bronx River Parkway near Gun Hill Road. A Mercedes tried to pass, hit a Volkswagen, then hit the riders. Both were thrown and died at the hospital, police said. Two lives, gone. “Two men on motorcycles were killed in the crash overnight,” said NYPD. A family stood outside court and asked why the driver walked. “How could they let him go? How could they do that?” a mother said. Another voice cut through: “Two people were killed. He was drunk,” said a sister.
On this corridor, death is not rare. Since 2022, the Bronx River Parkway is the top hotspot in CB27 for harm, with multiple deaths and injuries. Nights bleed: midnight to 3 a.m. is a peak window for injury and death here. The pattern is loud. So is the silence between sirens.
Where it hurts
Hotspots stack up: Bronx River Parkway and Southern Boulevard lead the roll call of pain. Night crashes dominate; lighting and speed are the tell. Local data flags repeat trouble after dark. We see chain reactions and ejections. We see pedestrians killed on the parkway shoulder. The ledger does not lie.
What leaders did — and didn’t
There is motion in Albany. State Sen. Gustavo Rivera voted yes in committee on the speed‑limiter bill S 4045, aimed at drivers who rack up violations; he also voted to extend school speed zones. Assembly Member George Alvarez missed key committee votes on school speed zones but co‑sponsored the Assembly speed‑limiter bill. Council Member Oswald Feliz backed smaller safety bills, yet opposed stronger bus fixes on Fordham Road that protect people outside cars. The MTA pleaded for urgency. “We can’t deemphasize and under‑prioritize the lives of people of the Bronx,” said Janno Lieber’s team.
What will stop the bleeding
- Lower speeds: Use city authority to set a safer default and add 20 mph zones.
- Speed limiters for repeat offenders: Pass and enforce S 4045/A 2299 to curb the worst drivers.
- Local fixes at hotspots: Night enforcement and lighting upgrades on the Bronx River Parkway; daylighting and LPIs on Southern Boulevard; hardened turns and tighter lanes near ramps.
Act now. Tell your council member, assembly member, and senator to back lower speeds and speed limiters. Start here: take action. The road will not wait.
