Park Slope Bike Path Controversy
Brooklyn, NY 11215
United States of America
A radar gun study on the effect the bike path has on Prospect Park West speeding was conducted by Park Slope Neighbors, a grassroots neighborhood organization, and concluded that traffic has been significantly reduced.
Park Slope Neighbors has also created a petition, addressed to New York City Department of Transportation (DOT) Commissioner Janette Sadik-Khan, asking DOT to convert 8th Avenue and Prospect Park West into two-way streets in order to improve safety.
