The Department of Transportation has long promised a pedestrian path on the Queensboro Bridge, aiming to reduce conflicts and enhance safety for both pedestrians and cyclists.
Assemblymember Zohran Mamdani and Councilmember Julie Won expressed frustration at the continued delays, stressing the need for a dedicated pedestrian path to improve safety for the thousands crossing daily.
Currently, critical infrastructure upgrades are necessary for the Queensboro Bridge's structural integrity before the south outer roadway can be safely opened to pedestrian traffic.
The delays in completing the pedestrian pathway reflect a history of unresolved transportation issues, drawing parallels with issues once faced on the Brooklyn Bridge.
