The New York City Department of Transportation will present a proposal for traffic calming on West 106th Street, including buffered bike lanes in both directions. West 106th Street is a key route in the NYC Bicycle Master Plan, providing convenient crosstown access across the Upper West Side to popular recreational amenities and other bicycle routes. The installation of bicycle lanes on West 106th Street in July presents an opportunity for a "complete street" redesign to make the street safer and more comfortable not only for cyclists, but for all street users.
