"We're one of the slowest moving countries and definitely cities when it comes to good transportation policy, but I really feel like the time is now... as long as people don't get in their way, we're going to see a lot more of these projects happening in our borough," Brooklyn Borough President Antonio Reynoso said.
"Over the last five years, we've had 500 crashes just on this stretch of Atlantic Avenue between Fourth Avenue and the East River," Brooklyn City Councilmember Lincoln Restler said.
"It's taken a long time to get the kind of responsiveness that we need to make some of these changes," Assemblymember Jo Anne Simon said.
"A year from now, I'm hoping to see is that our list of pedestrians that has been killed on Atlantic Avenue has not gotten even a person longer," Amanda Nichols, president of the Cobble Hill Association, said.
