EXCLUSIVE: Mamdani Creates 'Curb Management' Office at DOT, Seeking Order From Chaos - Streetsblog New York City
""Our curbs are more than just where our sidewalks meet the street, they are a reflection of how we want our streets to be used - streets that need to work for all New Yorkers.""
""It's overdue, I think it's going to make a lot of sense once you have all these people thinking about the same thing and thinking about how is the space and the time allocated.""
The Mamdani administration plans to create an Office of Curb Management to oversee New York City's 6,300 miles of curbside lanes. This initiative aims to reclaim public space currently used for car storage, addressing needs for safe deliveries, outdoor dining, and waste management. The office will enhance safety, expand loading zones, and improve outdoor dining. Advocates emphasize the necessity of this office to address the city's disorganized curb planning, which primarily benefits private vehicles. The rise in delivery trucks during the pandemic has highlighted the urgency for better curb management.
