Leaders say they want safer streets. The record is mixed.
“The current state of the Conduit falls significantly short of meeting the needs of drivers, cyclists and pedestrians alike,” Queens Borough President Donovan Richards said, calling it confusing and dangerous for neighbors in Queens and Brooklyn Streetsblog.
Council Transportation Chair Selvena Brooks‑Powers has pressed DOT: “DOT gives us their word every hearing and we are not getting results” Streetsblog.
Albany’s camera program is in place. State lawmakers voted to extend school speed zones and automated enforcement; local representatives including Senator Leroy Comrie and Senator James Sanders voted yes, and Assembly Member Clyde Vanel voted yes as well legislative records. The city still must slow cars on the ground.
Stop the repeat harm
One lever sits in Albany: the speed‑limiter bill. Senator Leroy Comrie co‑sponsored S 4045 and voted yes in committee; the measure would require intelligent speed assistance for repeat offenders. In the Assembly, Clyde Vanel co‑sponsors the matching bill A 2299 bill files.
Local fixes are plain. Hardened lefts and daylighting at high‑injury spots like Belt Parkway access points and South Conduit. Leading pedestrian intervals and protected bike lanes across the board area. Focused night and early‑morning enforcement where deaths spike. The data supports them NYC Open Data.
Lower speeds save lives. Pass the speed‑limiter bill. Push the city to set safer speeds and build the protections that force drivers to slow. Act now: take action.

Astoria Bike Lane Lawsuit Challenges Safety▸Aug 8 - Businesses sued to block protected bike lanes on 31st Street. DOT stands firm. Two killed, 190 injured here since 2020. The street stays dangerous. The fight is over space, speed, and who gets to survive.

The agency says it incorporated feedback from 90% of local businesses. The legal fight spotlights tension between safety improvements and business concerns, as the corridor ranks among Queens' most crash-prone.
