Midtown’s Blood Price: How Many Must Die Before City Hall Acts?
Midtown-Times Square: Jan 1, 2022 - Jun 4, 2025
The Toll in Midtown-Times Square
A man steps into the crosswalk. A bus bears down. The street swallows another life. In the past twelve months, six people died on Midtown-Times Square streets. Nine more suffered serious injuries. The numbers do not flinch: 408 injured, 752 crashes in a single year. Each one a story cut short, a body broken, a family left waiting for a call that never comes.
SUVs, taxis, bikes, and buses all play their part. The old and the young are not spared. A woman, 83, crossing with the signal, struck and killed by an SUV turning left at 58th and Sixth. Two cyclists, both 67, dead after a collision with a parked SUV on Fifth Avenue. A 39-year-old man, not even in the roadway, killed by a bus and a boom lift on East 51st. These are not accidents. They are the cost of inaction. Crash data
Promises and Delays from City Hall
City leaders talk about safety. They promise change. Mayor Eric Adams calls Fifth Avenue a place where “more people walk down the street every hour than fill Madison Square Garden during a sold-out Knicks game” and says the city is “finally making… a pedestrian paradise by making it more walkable, greener, and safer” said Mayor Adams. The city will spend $400 million to widen sidewalks and plant trees. But the plan skips bus lanes and bike lanes. Riders Alliance calls it out: “Two mayors have now disregarded city workers’ plans for a busway, throwing riders under the bus to favor luxury boutiques” said Danny Pearlstein.
Pedestrians make up 70% of Fifth Avenue traffic but get less than half the space. Buses crawl. Cyclists dodge doors and trucks. The city claims progress, but the most vulnerable are still left in the street.
The Next Step Is Yours
This is not fate. It is policy. Every delay, every watered-down plan, every missing lane is a choice. The dead cannot speak. The living must. Call your council member. Demand bus lanes, bike lanes, and real protection for people on foot and on wheels. Do not wait for another name on the list. Take action now.
