Dozens of New Yorkers rallied at City Hall, urging the NYC Department of Transportation to implement universal daylighting at intersections to enhance safety. The proposed legislation, Intro. 1138, aims to move parked cars away from intersections and install physical barriers. With 68% of traffic collisions occurring at intersections, advocates stress the urgency of this bill, which has garnered support from 24 NYC Council members and the Public Advocate. The initiative seeks to not only improve visibility but also to create safer urban spaces across the city.
With 68% of collisions in NYC occurring at intersections, advocates argue that the proposed legislation is crucial for improving safety in urban areas.
We're here today because neighborhoods across the city... have said that they want daylighting throughout NYC, said Jackson Chabot, director of advocacy.
Intro. 1138 would bring universal daylighting to the five boroughs and install physical barriers at 1,000 intersections a year.
