Brooklyn Set For ADA Upgrades Along Eastern Parkway
Briefly

The New York City Department of Transportation is planning ADA-compliant improvements along Eastern Parkway, which includes redesigned B14 bus stops at Utica and Buffalo Avenues. The upgrades feature new pedestrian ramps and smoother paving with granite and hex blocks. Informal B14 bus stops will be relocated, and the current stop at Rochester Avenue will be removed. To accommodate passenger loading, one tree will be moved. The project aims to preserve green space with approximately 37% planting coverage while making minor layout changes east of Buffalo Avenue.
