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?
