NYC designs the future of safer intersections for cyclists

There are many more people who are driving bikes in New York City than ever before. The city is becoming more and more populated by the day and as a result, there is less space than ever for cars. While some people still opt to have cars, there are others who simply cannot see the purpose of having a car in the city. Now, the actual city is taking steps to make sure that cyclists are safe.

Key Takeaways:

  • Although streets in New York are safer today, it is yet to reach its goal of zero fatalities from car collisions.
  • Some challenges to bikers are that cars and trucks routinely block bike lanes and protected bike lanes are sometimes opposed.
  • The DOT has released a new publication that outlines its vision of making the roads safer for bikers.

“89 percent of bike collisions happen at intersections. DOT’s new street-design guidelines aim to slash that statistic and save lives.”
