The toll here is not an accident; it is a count
Since 2022, Westerleigh–Castleton Corners has recorded 1,566 crashes, 918 injuries, 9 serious injuries, and 6 deaths. NYC Open Data
This year through today: 288 crashes, 171 injuries, 2 deaths. Same stretch last year: 339 crashes, 204 injuries, 1 death. Period stats NYC Open Data
Police repeatedly cite driver behaviors that end lives and break bones here: failure to yield, inattention and distraction, improper turns, alcohol involvement. NYC Open Data
Deaths are not confined to the night. The data show a spike around the early morning, including 6 AM. NYC Open Data
Corners we already know by name
JEWETT AVENUE has seen 2 deaths and 24 injuries. CLOVE ROAD shows 1 death and 77 injuries. FOREST AVENUE logs 77 injuries. These are the same streets neighbors cross to reach a bus stop or a bodega. NYC Open Data
Practical fixes are not mysteries: daylight corners so drivers can see people before they turn; harden turns to force slow speeds; give walkers a head start at signals; narrow wide lanes where speeding is easy. Target enforcement where distraction and failure to yield keep showing up. NYC Open Data
The record in Albany tells its own story
The Senate took up the speed-limiter bill for repeat violators this summer. State Senator Andrew Lanza voted yes in committee on Jun 11, then voted no the next day. Open States
On school speed zones, Lanza voted no. Assembly Member Sam Pirozzolo also voted no. Assembly Member Charles Fall voted yes. Votes
““The United States is really falling behind in terms of improving crash safety outcomes on roads for drivers, vulnerable road users — all road users, really,”” Assembly Member Fall said this summer. Streetsblog USA
Slow down the cars; stop the worst repeat offenders
- Lowering speed limits saves lives. City data show traffic deaths fell in 2025 as the city expanded safety work and enforcement. AMNY
- Mandating intelligent speed assistance for habitual speeders is on the table in Albany. The bill is S 4045. Open States
These are choices. Make them here, at JEWETT, at CLOVE, on FOREST. Act before another 5 PM turns into sirens.

Bike lanes move to the median and surfaces are flattened. Moped and traffic-routing details remain unresolved as DOT gathers feedback.
""the current proposals still fall short of delivering the end-to-end, pedestrian-first experience our community deserves,"" -- Charles Fall
Bill number: none — this is a DOT project. Status: under DOT consideration as of 2025-11-26. Committee: not applicable. Key dates: article published 2025-11-26; DOT is collecting feedback through Nov. 30 and will unveil a preliminary design next year. Matter title quoted: "The DOT is contemplating two options for the 1.3 mile-long linear park in Jackson Heights." DOT offered two options. Jim Burke, co-founder of the 34th Avenue Open Streets Coalition, favors Option 2, calling it "Meander" and saying it "preserves the real beauty of what we have now." Luz Maria Mercado, board chair of the Alliance for Paseo Park, says neither option properly addresses moped users and calls for a dedicated micro-mobility lane. Safety note: The description lacks specifics on design, traffic changes, and access, making population-level safety impacts unclear; a linear park could improve safety if it reallocates space from cars, but details are needed.

Fall Demands Safety‑Boosting End‑to‑End Pedestrian Experience▸Nov 26 - DOT plans an $89M revamp of the 1.3-mile Paseo Park. Two designs split plazas and traffic in different ways. Bike lanes move to the median and surfaces are flattened. Moped and traffic-routing details remain unresolved as DOT gathers feedback.
""the current proposals still fall short of delivering the end-to-end, pedestrian-first experience our community deserves,"" -- Charles Fall
Bill number: none — this is a DOT project. Status: under DOT consideration as of 2025-11-26. Committee: not applicable. Key dates: article published 2025-11-26; DOT is collecting feedback through Nov. 30 and will unveil a preliminary design next year. Matter title quoted: "The DOT is contemplating two options for the 1.3 mile-long linear park in Jackson Heights." DOT offered two options. Jim Burke, co-founder of the 34th Avenue Open Streets Coalition, favors Option 2, calling it "Meander" and saying it "preserves the real beauty of what we have now." Luz Maria Mercado, board chair of the Alliance for Paseo Park, says neither option properly addresses moped users and calls for a dedicated micro-mobility lane. Safety note: The description lacks specifics on design, traffic changes, and access, making population-level safety impacts unclear; a linear park could improve safety if it reallocates space from cars, but details are needed.
