Cyclists take bike lane advocacy to CB 10
A crowd of cyclists descended onCommunity Board 10 on Monday, May16, to demand that the boardchange its position on the controversial Bay Ridge Parkway bikelanes.
The citys Department ofTransportation (DOT) had killed its plan to install the lanesalong the strip between Shore Road and Bay Parkwaylast month, in response to strong opposition from both CB 10 and CB11, as well as several local civic groups, who contended that,rather than increasing safety, the bike lanes would make cyclingalong the busy strip more dangerous.
