DOT says loading zones will reduce double-parking
The Dept. of Transportation will put 31 curbside loading zones in Bay Ridge over the next several weeks.
DOT created the zones based on its own research and on dozens of suggestions residents posted on its website, said Matthew Roosa, project manager for the Neighborhood Loading Zone program (NLZ).
Roosa said the NLZs will provide safe curb spots for vehicles to pick up or drop off passengers or goods, mainly on narrow residential streets. DOT says the zones will also reduce double-parking.
