Pedestrian Improvements at West 4th Street
Brad Hoylman
March 25, 2015
On March 17, I joined Congressman Jerrold Nadler, Manhattan Borough President Gale Brewer, Assembly Member Deborah Glick, and Council Member Corey Johnson in writing to the NYC Department of Transportation (DOT) to commend them on the proposed Intersection Safety Improvements on 7th Avenue South at Waverly Place and West 4th Street/Christopher Street. Our letter also echoed the modifications that CB2 suggested in its February resolution, which include revising the shape of the neckdown at Grove St. and 7th Ave S. and further defining the left-turn only lane from 7th Ave S. onto W. 4th St. This intersection ranks in the top 1% of Manhattan intersections for pedestrians killed and severely injured by motor vehicles. We thank the DOT for addressing this problem and their willingness to work so closely with the local community throughout this process. Please see our letter attached.
