A lawsuit has been filed against the Adams administration to prevent the removal of the Bedford Avenue bike lane, arguing it violates city laws requiring proper notification for bike lane changes. Plaintiffs, including Transportation Alternatives, argue the lane's removal would irreparably harm cyclists. The lawsuit asserts the city did not adhere to the required notice processes before making decisions, citing a failure to inform local elected officials and community boards. The administration's claim of community consultation is disputed by opposing views from local residents.
The city improperly, irrationally, without proper legal notice and in an abuse of discretion announced on Friday, June 13, 2025 that it would remove the upgraded bicycle lane.
City Administrative Code Section 19-101.2 requires the Department of Transportation to provide email notice... and allow at least 10 business days within which said officials may request a presentation.
