New York City officials released a plan to enhance its greenway network, proposing the development of 40 new miles of paths. The vision aims to connect existing pathways, creating a more cohesive space for pedestrians and cyclists. This master plan is the first update in over 30 years and focuses on six main corridors for quick construction. While there’s intent for the plan to proceed by 2028, no firm commitments regarding investment or timelines were provided, coinciding with Mayor Eric Adams' re-election campaign amid criticisms of reduced bike lane initiatives.
The plan includes 40 new miles of paths that could be built in the short term, with construction beginning as soon as 2028.
‘This is a plan for future generations that leaves no neighborhood behind,’ said Councilmember Carlina Rivera of Manhattan, who introduced the legislation.
