Two hits on Central Park West, and a map that doesn’t lie
Precinct 22: Jan 1, 2022 - Sep 18, 2025
On Sep 6, a man on a bike was hit at W 93 St and Central Park West. Police records mark him injured, helmet on, shock noted (NYC Open Data).
This Week
- Four people walking were hurt the same morning at W 81 St and Central Park West; the driver of a garbage truck was turning left (NYC Open Data).
- On Jul 24, a driver in an SUV turned right off Central Park West toward the 79th St Transverse and police recorded failure to yield; the person on an e‑bike was hurt (NYC Open Data).
- On Sep 7, two sedans tangled at W 96 St and Central Park West; one occupant reported pain (NYC Open Data).
A precinct’s tally
Since Jan 1, 2022, this precinct logged 574 crashes, with 335 people injured and 2 killed (NYC Open Data). Year to date, crashes fell to 77 from 89 last year, but serious injuries climbed to 4 from 1, and there is 1 death after none last year (NYC Open Data).
Afternoons hit hardest here. Injuries peak around 3 PM and spike again at 5 PM in the crash record (NYC Open Data).
Central Park West keeps showing up
The corridor itself is a hotspot, led by Central Park West intersections and W 81 St among top harm locations in the precinct’s data. Police have repeatedly logged drivers failing to yield and inattention/distraction in serious cases on these blocks (NYC Open Data).
Left turns are a common thread in recent crashes: the garbage truck at W 81 St was turning left, and drivers were making turns in multiple Central Park West bike crashes, including the July case at the 79th St Transverse where speed was also marked in the record (NYC Open Data).
Trucks, turns, and bodies on the ground
Heavy vehicles do outsize damage here. In the current precinct stats for people walking, trucks and buses account for the only recorded pedestrian death and multiple serious injuries. The police crash file lists a fatal truck strike at Central Park North during the overnight hours in 2023 (NYC Open Data).
These are preventable movements: fast approaches into crosswalks, blind lefts across bike lines, and wide, unprotected turns at Central Park West.
Concrete fixes are known and local. Daylight every leg of Central Park West and W 81 St. Add hardened centerlines and protected left‑turn treatments at the 79th St Transverse and W 93 St. Put targeted truck enforcement and routing on Central Park North and the West 81st junction during the afternoon peaks (NYC Open Data).
Officials have tools. Will they use them?
Citywide solutions can backstop local fixes. The city now has the power to lower speeds; advocates are calling for a default 20 MPH and expansion of safer‑speed design. The Legislature also has a bill to stop the worst repeat speeders with mandatory intelligent speed assistance after multiple tickets. Both steps are laid out here: Take Action.
This precinct sits in Council District District 6, Assembly District AD 67, and State Senate District SD 28. The record here does not show whether Council Member Gale A. Brewer, Assembly Member Linda Rosenthal, or State Senator Liz Krueger have sponsored the repeat‑speeder bill. The need on Central Park West is not abstract. It is a person on the pavement.
One call can matter. Ask them to back the speed limiter bill and push a 20 MPH default. Start here: Take Action.
