New Speed Limit Enforcement on Broadway 59th - 220th Street

  This comes from City Council Transportation committee Chair Councilman Ydanis Rodriguez.

Office of Council Member Ydanis Rodriguez Dear Friends and Neighbors, Yesterday, I joined Senator Espaillat, Council Member Rosenthal and  NYPD Traffic Division Chief Chan to announce the NYPD's enforcement  of the new 25 MPH speed limit on Broadway's "Arterial Slow Zone."  This zone, announced in May of this year, will stretch from 220th Street to 59th Street. Police officers will now ticket drivers found speeding over 25 as opposed to 30 in this area. Since 2008, 22 people have been killed by cars in this stretch, a statistic we would like to limit to 0 for the future. Please help us save lives by driving at lower speeds and remaining conscious of all others who use our streets including cyclists and pedestrians. With your help, we can achieve Vision Zero. Thank you.  Sincerely, Ydanis Rodriguez,
