Who’s Injuring and Killing Pedestrians in Inwood Hill Park?

Broadway and W 220: a rider down, and a map of hurts

Inwood Hill Park: Jan 1, 2022 - Oct 20, 2025

A man on a bike hit the pavement at Broadway and W 220 in the early evening. He was 38 and unconscious, with severe cuts to his face, police records show (NYC Open Data; CrashID 4792369).

Where the blows land

Since 2022, this area has seen 57 crashes and 36 injuries, including one serious injury, according to city data for Inwood Hill Park’s neighborhood tabulation area (NYC Open Data). Injuries spike in the afternoon and early evening, with peaks around 2 PM and 6 PM in the local record (NYC Open Data).

The hurt clusters on Henry Hudson Parkway, Broadway, and W 220 Street. Those corridors account for most of the local injuries recorded by police (NYC Open Data).

What the record says happened here

At Broadway and W 220, the bike crash that sent the 38‑year‑old to the ground was logged as a serious injury to a bicyclist. The police file shows he was going straight when something hit him; the other vehicle was not identified in the dataset (CrashID 4792369).

A few blocks away and earlier in the period, police recorded a driver’s unsafe speed contributing to a crash on Broadway on Aug 30, 2022 (CrashID 4560147). On Apr 19, 2024, driver inattention/distraction was cited in another local crash, leaving one person hurt (CrashID 4718641).

Fewer wrecks this year. The pain remains.

Crashes counted this year are lower than last year in this area—6 so far in 2025, compared with 10 in the same period a year prior. Injuries held at 2 in both periods, per the same city files (NYC Open Data). A lower tally does not clear the corner where a rider went down.

Fix the turns. Protect the crossings.

This is fixable with ordinary tools. Hardened right turns and daylighting at Broadway and W 220 would cut blind conflict. Lead pedestrian intervals and tighter corners on Broadway would slow drivers before the crosswalk. A protected bike link through this junction would give people on bikes room to live. Targeted enforcement during the afternoon and early evening peaks would meet the problem where it hits.

The bills that would rein in the worst drivers

The state has a path to stop repeat speeders. The Senate’s speed‑limiter bill, S 4045, has State Senator Robert Jackson listed as a co‑sponsor and a yes vote in committee (Open States). In the Assembly, Assembly Member Al Taylor co‑sponsors the companion bill, A 2299 (Open States). The City Council controls local speed limits. Council Member Carmen N. De La Rosa represents this area (District 10).

Lower speeds and speed limiters will not lift the man at Broadway and W 220. They would spare the next one.

Take one step that matters. Ask City Hall to lower speeds and Albany to pass the speed‑limiter bills. Start here.
