Dear Neighbor,

Next Thursday, July 21st, I will be hosting a Virtual Town Hall titled “Sharing
Our Streets: How Better Design Can Make Streets Safer And More User
Friendly For Everyone.” We all know Manhattan is crowded, and more and more
users are sharing our streets. We've also seen a disturbing increase in
deaths caused by interactions between cars and other road users. At this
event we will learn about what is being done, and what could be done in the
future, to make our streets safer and easier to navigate for all of us.

I hope you can join me for this event. See below for more information and
registration details.

Best,

Liz Krueger
State Senator

*Senator Liz Krueger’s Virtual Town Hall*

*“Sharing Our Streets: How Better Design Can Make Streets Safer And More
User Friendly For Everyone”*


*Thursday, July 21st from 7pm – 8:15pm *



The streets of Manhattan have always been busy, but these days they can
feel like they are busier than ever. Pedestrians, cars, bikes, delivery
workers, and restaurants are all sharing our streets at the same time, and
that can create challenging situations that are hard to navigate. Most
disturbingly, there is an upward trend in deadly interactions between cars
and other road users -- the first quarter of 2022 was the deadliest start
to any year since Vision Zero began. How can we design our streets so that
they are safe, logical, and enjoyable for all? Find out what efforts the
City is making, including safer street designs, Safe Streets for Seniors,
and reimagining the future of city streets.

*- **Ed Pincar, *Manhattan Borough Commission, New York City Department of
Transportation
