Join other Manhattan East Siders as we plan our advocacy efforts for safer streets on the East Side.

In 2009 we will work together to:

  • Complete a continuous network of Class 2 buffered/painted bike lanes running on both North-South Avenues and East-West Streets linked to a backbone of Class 1 physically separated bike lanes on North-South Avenues on the East Side of Manhattan;
  • Complete the East River Greenway by closing the gaps in Midtown (from 34th-60th Streets) and in Harlem (from 125th-135th Streets and 145th to 155th Streets) to allow for continuous biking and walking along the entire length of the East Side; and 
  • Integrate protected bike lanes and pedestrian safety improvements into the design for Bus Rapid Transit on 1st and 2nd Avenues.
