"Travel times have increased, but by less than the length of one traffic light cycle. On weekdays, it takes about a minute longer to drive from Meeker Avenue to Calyer Street."
"Fewer cars are traversing the redesigned portion of McGuinness Boulevard, with the boulevard seeing between 100-400 fewer vehicles south of Greenpoint Avenue."
The redesigned southern half of McGuinness Boulevard has resulted in increased cycling and reduced vehicle traffic. The Department of Transportation reported fewer cars and slightly longer travel times after removing a vehicle lane for a bike lane. Initial concerns about gridlock were addressed, showing only minor increases in travel time. The redesign was initially stalled but was later approved and implemented. Mayor Zohran Mamdani has committed to extending the redesign as weather permits, with data indicating a successful outcome for the community.
