Dear John,
A few weeks ago, I had the opportunity to take major steps toward making our streets safer and our transit system more accessible for all Bronxites. I’m excited to share two key announcements that mark real progress in our community:
🚲 Expanding Bike Lanes and Safer Streets in the Bronx
As part of NYC DOT’s latest Vision Zero equity report, we announced new street redesigns and infrastructure upgrades—including protected bike lanes, pedestrian islands, and safer intersections right here in Soundview. These improvements prioritize communities like ours that have historically been left behind in street safety investments. I’ve been proud to advocate for more protected bike lanes in District 18, and this initiative will not only save lives but also create better connections to transit, schools, and small businesses.
