PROJECT CHALLENGES

  • Different adjacent land use context &

character

  • Various owners
  • Designed mostly for vehicular traffic
  • Varied pedestrian experience
  • Difficult transit access
  • High density of curb cuts
  • Nonexistent or unsuitable parallel routes
  • On-street parking is highly valued in some

areas

  • Some pinch points due to on-street parking,

narrow roadway width, higher traffic volumes

PROJECT OPPORTUNITIES

  • The new bridge will bring more people walking

and riding bikes to Route 119

  • Better walking and biking routes support better

access to destinations and more safe transportation options

  • Many Route 119 segments have sufficient

roadway width to dedicate space for people walking and biking and still keep traffic flowing

  • Better transit access
  • Better connectivity at street crossings to

existing trails (South County Trail, Bronx River Pathway)

ACTION PLAN

33

  • Project list by section, road segment, and

implementation term

  • Budget regular maintenance of the bicycle

and pedestrian network

  • Coordinated Implementation across

departments

  • Improve crash data reports related to walking

and biking

  • Perform regular Bicycle, Pedestrian, Vehicle

and Transit ridership Counts

  • Continue supportive education and safety

programs

  • Integrate pilot project/place-making in other

events along the corridor

  • The implementation of Complete Streets requires removing 13 on-street parking spaces

between Rosemont Blvd and Hillside Ave, if this road segment is road dieted.

  • Replace some pole-only stops with

shelters and benches

  • Connect all bus stops to walking

network with new sidewalk and crosswalks

  • Maintains operations at all bus stops
  • In lane stops overlapping with bike

network supported with boarding platform

  • Consolidation of stops based on Bee-

Line Routes 7 & 13 Study

TRAFFIC IMPACT

36

  • Road diet along most of the sections (1 to 2 lanes)
  • Intersections operating below NYS threshold will continue to
  • Delay at other intersections will meet LOS thresholds
  • Traffic review will be conducted by state in permitting process

SAFETY IMPACT

  • Slow traffic speeds
  • Proven benefit of separation reducing collisions for all users
  • Safety review will be conducted by state in permitting process
