The latest streets and transportation news from Streetsblog NYC.
Today’s top story is a classic Streetsblog “Anatomy of…” story, a deep dive into how Mayor Adams went from actually thinking about taking on the app companies to just busting cyclists.
In other words, how did a man who wanted to create the “Department of Sustainable Delivery” end up just cracking down on workers?
Plus so much other news (including another betrayal by Albany on making streets safer).
Troopers based in NYC routinely blew off their duties to chill, sleep with their girlfriends and, in one notorious case, drive to a strip club in New Jersey, get drunk and get arrested for assault, Streetsblog has learned.
The Department of Transportation is poised to get tens of millions dollars per year in new funding specifically to execute Mayor Mamdani’s vision for bus lanes and bike lanes around the city.
