Bike lanes along Queens Boulevard painted since 2016 did not make the Boulevard safer. How many more businesses may close before DoT’s error is reversed?
Community board and the neighborhood voted against the bike lanes in May 2016, but ex-Mayor de Blasio pushed ahead the stretch from 74th Street and Eliot Avenue until Union Turnpike.
