Brannan, DOT unveil new speed bump near Bay Ridge school
Councilmember Justin Brannan, the NYC Department of Transportation, parents and students were in attendance for a ribbon-cutting ceremony yesterday for a speed bump on 87th Street between Third Avenue and Ridge Boulevard, near P.S. 185 the Walter Kassenbrock school.
Brannan, who has long been advocating for safer streets in Bay Ridge but has especially done so in the wake of two accidents within the last, called the new speed bump a good first step.
“Like most things we do through my office, it comes through community concerns or community suggestions, or complaints,” he said. “This block has been on our radar for quite a while because of the proximity to the school.”
