Brooklyn 10-Mile Bike Boulevard on Bergen and Dean Streets

planned

The city of Brooklyn plans to redesign 10 miles of roadway along Bergen and Dean streets to create a dedicated bike boulevard aimed at boosting cyclist and pedestrian safety. The project includes protected bike lanes, traffic-calming medians, and sidewalk extensions to reduce vehicle speeds while maintaining local access. The initiative is part of broader efforts to make Brooklyn streets safer and encourage lifelong cycling habits among residents, especially students.
