A new redesign for six miles of roadway in Central Park is set to begin on March 17, aiming to improve safety for pedestrians, cyclists, and joggers. The project, developed by NYC Parks, NYC DOT, and the Central Park Conservancy, arises amid increased conflicts on narrow paths shared by cyclists and walkers, highlighted by a recent altercation between riders. The plan includes clearer demarcation of spaces for different users and will involve milling and repaving areas of the park loop over the next two years.
The redesigned plan for Central Park's roadways aims to enhance safety for walkers, joggers, and cyclists amidst growing e-vehicle usage.
NYC Parks and the Department of Transportation, in collaboration with the Central Park Conservancy, are launching a redesign focused on improving safety.
With this redesign, we're making it easier and safer for New Yorkers to bike, jog, and stroll through Central Park's six-mile loop.
The redesign comes as a response to increased e-vehicle usage and tensions between cyclists and pedestrians on narrow paths.
