Who’s Injuring and Killing Pedestrians in South Jamaica?
Blood on the Crosswalk: South Jamaica Pays for City Hall’s Inaction
South Jamaica: Jan 1, 2022 - Jul 11, 2025
The Toll in South Jamaica
The streets of South Jamaica do not forgive. Since 2022, three people have died and 631 have been injured in crashes here. Eight of those injuries were serious. The numbers do not tell you about the silence after the sirens fade. They do not show you the blood on the crosswalk or the shoes left behind.
Cars and SUVs did most of the harm. They killed one person and injured over eighty more. Trucks, buses, motorcycles, mopeds, and bikes added to the count. The dead and wounded are not just numbers. They are neighbors, children, workers, elders.
Recent Crashes: No End in Sight
The violence does not stop. In the last year alone, one person died and 199 were injured in 318 crashes. A 45-year-old woman was killed crossing at 158th Street and 111th Avenue by an SUV. The cause: driver inattention. She died at the intersection, her life ended by a moment’s distraction (NYC Open Data).
A 50-year-old cyclist was crushed by a sedan on Liberty Avenue. The driver was not paying attention. The cyclist survived, but with crushed legs and a future changed forever (NYC Open Data).
Voices from the Wreckage
The pain is not abstract. It is sharp and real. After a crash in Queens Village, a passenger recalled, “We didn’t see the crane coming… then the crane just hits us.” She added, “I was holding on for my life back there.”
After a deadly crash on the Belt Parkway, a survivor said, “They went airborne and into the barrier.”
Leadership: Steps Forward, Steps Back
Local leaders have passed some laws to help. Council Member Nantasha Williams voted to legalize jaywalking, ending a policy that punished the vulnerable instead of protecting them (These are new traffic laws in New York slated for 2025). She co-sponsored bills for better lighting, safer crossings, and more reporting on police vehicle crashes (File Int 0079-2024). But too many bills sit stalled in committee. Promises wait in the dark while people die in the street.
The Call
This is not fate. This is policy. Every crash is a choice made by those in power. Call your council member. Demand real change. Demand slower speeds, safer crossings, and streets built for people, not just cars. Do not wait for another name to be added to the list.

Queens Borough President Donovan Richards, once critical, now supports the draft after public outreach. State Senator Leroy Comrie noted Brooks-Powers wants clarity for her community, not outright rejection. The redesign awaits further input and is expected no sooner than 2025. No safety analyst has assessed the impact on vulnerable road users.

MTA plans $30 million for Queens bus overhaul. Eight new routes. More frequent service for thousands. Stops spaced farther apart. Most riders keep their stops. Councilmember Brooks-Powers doubts gains for her district. Borough President Richards backs the plan. Rollout not before 2025.
The MTA’s Queens Bus Network Redesign, announced December 12, 2023, proposes $30 million in service upgrades and expands local routes from 83 to 91. The plan, under review since 2020, aims to boost 10-minute-or-better service for 200,000 more residents, raising coverage from 60.1% to 68.9%. The official summary states the redesign will 'streamline and speed up service.' Council Transportation Chair Selvena Brooks-Powers voiced 'serious concerns' about disadvantages for her district, especially with congestion pricing. Queens Borough President Donovan Richards, once critical, now supports the draft after public outreach. State Senator Leroy Comrie noted Brooks-Powers wants clarity for her community, not outright rejection. The redesign awaits further input and is expected no sooner than 2025. No safety analyst has assessed the impact on vulnerable road users.

Sanders Supports Safety Boosting QueensLink Transit and Park Plan▸QueensLink backers gathered at City Hall. They demanded new rail and park space for Queens. Elected officials and advocates pressed the MTA to act. The agency stalled, citing costs. Supporters want transit, green space, and bike paths. The fight continues.
On September 7, 2023, QueensLink supporters rallied at City Hall, pushing for the reactivation of an old rail line between southeast and central Queens. The event, covered by Streetsblog NYC, highlighted the proposal's promise: 'both new train service and park land.' State Sen. James Sanders led the call, declaring, 'Yes, we want a park and yes we want a light rail. We can have both.' Mike Scala, another advocate, stressed public support for a combined approach. The QueensLink faces competition from the QueensWay, a park-only plan with $35 million in city funding. The MTA has not committed, citing high costs and ongoing needs assessment. No formal council bill or committee action is recorded yet. Supporters remain determined to see transit, park space, and bike paths included in future city plans.
