The addition of a parking-protected bike lane on Bedford Avenue will create a critical cycling link in an area where bicycle ridership is booming, while making the road safer for everyone.
Due to tricky street design, the lane will be barrier-protected at its southern end, between Dean Street and Atlantic Avenue; and parking-protected between Atlantic and Flushing Avenues.
The project will also address hazardous conditions at the intersection of Bedford and Atlantic avenues, where 10 pedestrians and cyclists have been injured since 2019.
The northbound left turn signal will be delayed, to give pedestrians and cyclists a head start, and traffic-calming measures will slow down left turns.
