Cannot wait to see this work continue down to Grand Army Plaza next year with the block-long, concrete bus boarding islands, which will really make Flatbush feel much calmer and help pedestrians cross more easily.
We're a little shy of two months into the new Flatbush Ave center running bus lane fragment and it seems like drivers have largely gotten the message:
🚌 FEAR THE BUS LANE. RESPECT THE BUS LANE. 🚌

pretty remarkable contrast between WMATA pushing for full automation on the DC metro, while NY legislators and unions try to mandate *two* employees per train
Major announcement in just-posted board documents: DC's Metro is moving fast toward automation.
Over 15 years, Metro plans full automation & platform screen doors, which the agency says will improve safety, reliability, & travel times—at reduced costs.

“'She did not just approve a fossil fuel project. She made a moral choice,' Lt. Gov. Antonio Delgado (D), who is primarying Hochul, said on Monday. 'New Yorkers deserve a governor who does not treat the climate crisis as a PR problem, but as a test of moral leadership.'”
