"They have proven themselves to be lawless - and I'm talking all races, colors, creeds, not just the deliveristas," E. 72nd Street resident Kathy Brady said at Wednesday night's marathon meeting. "I have never been afraid of cars in New York City. I used to walk in traffic, out in traffic without any fear whatsoever."
"The tech bros own the city and they seem to be owning the park, we can't let that happen," Brady added.
The proposal by the Central Park Conservancy seeks to better organize the road inside the park for cyclists, pedestrians, and people riding faster devices like e-bikes and other micromobility. The plan also suggests improving bike paths around the park's edges while converting one of its transverses into a bike path.
public speakers from the NYC E-Vehicle Safety Alliance and their allies on the board dismissed that - using their speaking time to rail against "lawless" cyclists, electric or otherwise, downplaying the dangers cars and accuse the conservancy of being beholden to "the bike lobby."
