The New York City Council is contemplating legislation to prohibit pedicabs within 50 feet of theater entrances and exits to alleviate noise disruptions and harassment reported by theatergoers. Introduced by Councilmembers Keith Powers and Erik Bottcher, the bill has garnered support from the Times Square Alliance, emphasizing the need to address the chaos caused by pedicabs in the Theater District. While acknowledging the potential benefits of pedicabs as a micro-mobility option, Bottcher stresses that illegal music blasting and disturbances undermine the experience for visitors and residents alike.
Pedicabs have the potential to be a great micro-mobility alternative and fun activity for tourists and residents alike - but it's not going well.
The chaos of the pedicab industry that plagues theatergoers needs to be controlled for a better experience around theater exits.
