Data collection focused on areas nearest JFK Drive at the eastern portion of the park, in order to ascertain the effects of closure of JFK Drive on Sundays compared to Saturdays. Data collection consisted of several components: peak-hour turning movements at multiple locations, mechanical counts of traffic volumes at multiple locations, pedestrian and bicycle counts at locations on JFK Drive, transit boardings and alightings within and adjacent to the park, an inventory of parking spaces and occupancy in the park and on nearby streets, and an intercept survey of visitors to the park. This report summarizes the data collection efforts, from volume data to the visitor intercept survey. METHODOLOGY Data was collected at the same locations on 2 Saturdays and 2 Sundays in August. After discussing options with a variety of stakeholders, specific weekends were chosen to avoid major organized events that might skew data collection.

The existing entrances/exits consist of variations of side-by-side stairs and escalators leading down to the underground concourse level, and are currently uncovered and exposed to inclement weather and discarded trash leading to frequent breakdowns of the existing escalators. The proposed improvements would include the installation of canopy covers over the entrances/exits, as well as replacement and refurbishment of existing street-level escalators. Each protective canopy would also be equipped with a motorized security grille that would lock at the sidewalk level of the station entrance/exit when the stations are closed.
