[Flickr/pinkrosepetal4] Listen up! Wednesday, February 13th – Green Streets Town Hall – 7:00 pm There is going to be a town hall meeting at PS 277 for the Green Streets. There will be representatives from the Department of Parks and also a representative from the Department of Transportation. Be there!
2008 looks like the battle ground year for Gerritsen Avenue. The battle will be about the DOT’s second phase of its plans for Gerritsen avenue. They plan on putting Green Streets down the center of Gerritsen Avenue. Green Streets are like a cement curb with parking on one side, think of Emmons Avenue without the diagonal parking. The first phase of the DOT plan we already see with the painted median ad the reduced 25 MPH speed limit. There are some ideas floating around. Like just putting these Green Streets only in front of the school and the by the Point. Any new median put in the Point would basically put an end to the illegal street racing. Ideas are nothing unless they have the support of local politicians and Marty Golden has expressed that its all of Gerritsen Avenue or nothing. Previous Post – Green Streets Coming to Gerritsen Beach
Looks like Gerritsen Avenue is going to be getting some new traffic medians in the future. In the past year or so a community committee met with the Department of Transportation to discuss traffic configurations to slow down traffic. The painted center median was the first to come of this meeting. |
