NYC Streets Plan

Overview

The future of New York City is one where everyone has access to reliable and environmentally-friendly transportation options, as well as safe and welcoming streets and public spaces.

NYC DOT is developing the NYC Streets Plan, a five-year transportation plan to improve the safety, accessibility, and quality of the City’s streets for all New Yorkers.

The plan will involve an in-depth analysis of the current state of New York City’s streets and respond equitably to the uniqueness of the City’s many neighborhoods and local needs.

The plan is being developed in response to Local Law 195 enacted in December 2019, which directs NYC DOT to issue and implement a transportation master plan every five years.


The New York City Streets Plan (NSP), developed in response to the Council’s “Streets Master Plan” legislation (Local Law 195), seeks to improve the safety, accessibility, and quality of the City’s streets for all New Yorkers. It will involve an in-depth analysis of the current planning efforts and will set equitable and ambitious goals for the City’s streets.

 

In addition to the feedback gained through the online module the NYC Department of Transportation will also be hosting a series of virtual workshops beginning in July (full schedule below). The virtual workshop for Bronx Area 2, Workshop 9: Community Boards 8, 9,10, 11,and 12 will be held on Wednesday, July 28th 2-4 PM.  Register now for Workshop 9

 

These virtual workshops will, in addition to soliciting broad feedback about how to best prioritize NYC streets, also seek input regarding the specific usage/priorities of your local streets.
