Local pol announces $6 million in funding to improve Ocean Parkway Malls
Pending new lane markings aim to make Ocean Parkway safer for both cyclists and pedestrians.
The notoriously busy mixed-use Brooklyn street recently received a $6 million allocation for signage and other improvements to be placed along its Malls in response to some alarming complaints.
According to Assemblymember Dov Hikind—who announced the allocation earlier this month—while signage is currently in place to designate specific walking and biking paths along the Ocean Parkway Malls, the dangers for both bikers and pedestrians continue to present a serious safety issue.
