What it will take on these blocks

Neptune Avenue and Mermaid Avenue need slower turns, earlier walk time, and clear corners. Hardened right turns, daylighting, and leading pedestrian intervals at these crossings would meet the danger shown here. Targeted enforcement of failure to yield at these same corners can start now. NYC Open Data

Citywide tools exist. Lower the default speed limit. Fit repeat speeders with limiters. Both steps are laid out here. /take_action/

Who will act for Precinct 60?

This precinct overlaps the districts of Council Member Inna Vernikov, Assembly Member Misha Novakhov, and State Senator Steve Chan. The state can pass the Stop Super Speeders Act. The city can lower speeds under Sammy’s Law. Will they move? /take_action/

One woman died on Neptune Avenue. The street is still the same. The next call is ours. /take_action/
