Brooklyn pol wants your opinions in new transportation survey
As southwest Brooklyn gets ready for a laundry list of transportation changes, one local elected official wants to find out exactly what his constituents think about transportation options and traffic issues in the area.
City Councilmember Vincent GentileĀ — who represents Bay Ridge, Dyker Heights and portions of Bensonhurst and Bath Beach — has kicked off a district-wide traffic and transportation survey, the goal of which is for him to understand better the needs of the constituents and then be able to address them.
āI have always said I rely on my constituents to be an extra set of eyes and ears for me around the district,ā said Gentile, adding,Ā āNow I am putting out the call for suggestions, solutions, and ideas for ways to improve upon traffic and transportation issues in my district.ā
