@NYGovPress Putting kids full names out on the social platform is crazy but not surprising from Hochul’s press office. I hope you have a waiver from parents authorizing you to broadcast personal information of a minor.

Incredible they would do this in a residential area creating chaos. Most don’t even live here - lead paid activist lives in crown heights. This is performative nonsense at its finest. Get paid lobbyists out of government. @NYC_DOT is nothing more than lobbyist.

Today's "Spring Community Ride for Safety" on NYC's 72nd Street was a joyous occasion. Lots of kids, families & community members #bikenyc thanking @NYCMayorsOffice @NYC_DOT for the new plans to make the corridor a safe, comfortable place for all people! @bfurnas @TransAltBX_Up @TransAlt @SwiftySanders @StreetopiaUWS @MarkGortonNYC @chabot_jackson @kencoughlin @NYC_SafeStreets @KathyParkPrice @StreetsblogNYC @galeabrewer @LindaBRosenthal @Komanoff

@AlexisMcAdamsTV @nycgov That’s not how it works. First you have to report it. Then the TikTok mayor will assemble his filming crew. They will brag about sewer socialism and how he constantly gets things done. Rinse and repeat while everything crumbles.

The really clean & beautiful streets of midtown NYC!
@nycgov how about some of that tax $$$$ is used to clean up!

@MerriweatherB10 @StreetsblogNYC That’s the next step in their agenda- complaining that it’s a health hazard to be eating next to the traffic and lobbing to remove cars where there is outdoor restaurant seating.
English
@StreetsblogNYC Only a M0R0N would want to eat in the street breathing in the exhaust of cars as they drive by. smh 🤦♂️

ICYMI: Permitting delays have kept many restaurants from setting up tables and chairs outside. nyc.streetsblog.org/2026/05/14/alm…

@LincolnRestler Biking cannot be equated to mass transit. It should absolutely cost more. P.S. introduce a bill to license bikers and require them to carry liability insurance.
English
We’ve all been there: you’re late, but the Citi Bike won’t unlock. We’ve got a fix for that. This is the Citi Bike Hack you’ve been waiting for.
PS: this bike ride shouldn’t cost more than a subway or bus ride — and we’ve got a bill for that.

@bfurnas The Bergen/Dean plan has nothing to do with car speeds. Ever since the atrocious redesign of Court St, the traffic is backed up for blocks from Court St down to 3rd Ave. The cars are barely even moving. It will be shit show with a bike boulevard.
English
We love to see it on Bergen/Dean and here. From our “New Bicycle Blueprint” plan to make NYC a world-class bicycle city:

“…maintain local car access, but dramatically reduce non-local drivers by diverting roadways to prevent cut-through traffic — creating a calmer, safer experience for two-wheelers.”

@emily_lip The dummies will still not yield to the emergency vehicles. Protected bike lanes will not keep them isolated from normal society. He should get his fined.
English
same firehouse that told me that cyclists don't need a protected lane in the neighborhood hit a cyclist down the street from me :)

@PIX11News @gregmocker But NYC TikTok mayor is more concerned about taking streets away from cars and making “open streets”. At least half of the existing fields, courts and playgrounds are in disrepair.
English
From holes in the track to melted metal bleachers, Macombs Dam Park in the Bronx is in desperate need of repairs, and neighbors are calling for action.

@LincolnRestler Lincoln , are you paying your nanny $5400 a month? This is $64,800 yearly. Look at what NYC DOE pays educated certified teachers. You are so out of touch.
English
Nannies do such important and difficult work, and they deserve to be paid $30 an hour. Proud to organize with the Carroll Gardens Association to advocate for better wages for nannies.

@OpenPlans NYC is not even capable of upkeep of their current parks for recreation. Go take a look at tennis courts and ball fields in this area. Every other park is poorly maintained. The parks and playgrounds must be fixed and properly maintained for children, families and neighbors.
English
we are SO excited!! ...and these streets should be open for children, families, and neighbors beyond the World Cup, year round just like Paris...

⚽️Game on, NYC! Our new Soccer Streets program will feature soccer-themed programming on Open Streets near 50 schools. Students will enjoy playing soccer, arts activities, and more on car-free streets. Learn more about Soccer Streets and Open Streets: nyc.gov/OpenStreets

@KathyParkPrice Looks like safe and respectful sharing of the road. The car slowed down to allow the bike with the parent to pass. Except that one in the front who didn’t check and weaved into the road. Those probably need to be kept behind barriers for everyone’s safety.
English
A moment of family biking on Dean St, this parent has a kid in a cargo bike and an older kid on their own bike and they’re navigating street design that prioritizes cars. Can’t wait for families and everyone (on foot + drivers) to be able to travel safety on the this corridor.

How are we celebrating Bike & Roll to School Day? With a new bike boulevard on Bergen & Dean Streets. Bike boulevards are low-traffic streets designed to make walking and biking safer and more comfortable for students and families while maintaining local vehicle traffic.
English
@OpenPlans “the streets are still designed almost exclusively for cars, sidewalks included” this is a next level crazy. You are not serious people.
English
Lower Manhattan's pedestrian volumes are some of the highest in the city, but the streets are still designed almost exclusively for cars, sidewalks included... This study shows how critical it is to transform these streets into people-first public spaces! myemail.constantcontact.com/Street-Smarts.…

The past three years were the hottest three years in recorded history.
The past eleven years were the hottest eleven years in recorded history.
Trump thinks climate change is a “hoax.” He is dangerously wrong.
We must break our addiction to fossil fuels and save the planet.

@professlou @nick_benson @NYC_DOT Why not? They are taking over large portion of the roads, don’t follow the rules and cause accidents. They are given all the privileges and none of the responsibility.
English
@NYORKER18 @nick_benson @NYC_DOT You don't require people to have a license to ride a bicycle. Grow up
English
Green Wave signal timing works! That’s why @NYC_DOT is expanding it.
On Manhattan’s Third Ave, it improved safety, reduced cyclist red light running, and had no impact on daytime travel speeds for drivers.

@dostlund @Streetfilms @NYC_DOT It can run through the middle of anything. I can guarantee that not the full length of the route can, should or does support the narrowing
English
@NYORKER18 @Streetfilms @NYC_DOT "Very rural", meaning runs through the middle of London? (see the back of the bus #322).
English
Been seeing so many anti-everything people saying it's impossible for @NYC_DOT to put #Bikenyc Blvds on Bergen Street because buses run on it.
Solution: in London inside LTN's (essentially bike blvds) there are "Bus Gates" which allow safe biking, bus & local access.
We need Low Traffic Neighborhoods in NYC. Why not start here? @StreetsblogNYC @OpenPlans @TransAlt @NYCMayorsOffice @dmjuliakerson @OsseChi @BergenBikeBus @saraklind

@dostlund @NYORKER18 @NYC_DOT Exactly. That is an extremely dense area we were in. When we filmed that.
