C.1.V. Provisions for Pedestrians and Bicyclists Final Environmental Impact Statement Section II.C C.1.v. Provisions for Pedestrians and Bicyclists Provisions for pedestrians and bicyclists within the project area are limited to at-grade streets and sidewalks within the industrial areas of Brooklyn and Queens on both sides of Newtown Creek and the Brooklyn residential neighborhoods of Greenpoint and East Williamsburg. Based on review of the New York City Bicycle Map, 56th Road and Review Avenue are the only designated routes in the vicinity of the bridge and are recommended as areas where sufficient street width for bicyclists is available and where vehicular traffic is light. Pedestrian and bicycle access across the bridge is not provided, and therefore persons crossing Newtown Creek must use the Greenpoint Avenue Bridge located approximately 1.2 km (0.75 mi) northwest of the Kosciuszko Bridge or the Grand Avenue Bridge located approximately 2.1 km (1.3 mi) southeast of the Kosciuszko Bridge. In Brooklyn, Meeker Avenue, Thomas Street, Cherry Street and Anthony Street provide at- grade pedestrian access via sidewalks parallel to the bridge. Access beneath the bridge is provided at Kingsland Avenue, Morgan Avenue, Vandervoort Avenue, Varick Avenue, Stewart Avenue, Gardner Avenue and Scott Avenue. Sidewalk pedestrian ramps are only found at the Meeker Avenue/Varick Avenue intersection and the Meeker Avenue/Stewart Avenue intersection. However, due to poor sidewalk conditions and/or lack of sidewalks at certain locations, handicapped accessibility is very limited parallel to and underneath the bridge. In Queens, 43rd Street and Laurel Hill Boulevard provide at-grade pedestrian access via sidewalks parallel to the bridge between the LIE and 56th Road. Access beneath the bridge is provided at 56th Road, 54th Road and 54th Avenue. Access from the residential community of Woodside to the industrial area is provided from 43rd Street, which passes beneath the LIE to a pedestrian bridge connection between 43rd Street and Laurel Hill Boulevard. Sidewalk pedestrian ramps are provided at the following intersections: 43rd Street/56th Road, 43rd Street/54th Road, 43rd Street/54th Avenue and Laurel Hill Boulevard/54th Avenue. However, due to poor sidewalk condition and/or the lack of sidewalks at certain locations, handicapped accessibility is very limited parallel to and underneath the bridge. Underneath the bridge, handicapped accessibility can be found at 54th Avenue and 56th Road. Pedestrian access to Newtown Creek is limited. Streets in Brooklyn terminate west of the creek and in Queens, access across the at-grade LIRR tracks is limited to 43rd Street, in Queens. There is no handicapped accessibility to Newtown Creek in either Brooklyn or Queens. The NYSDOT Highway Design Manual (Section 18.5.1) requires bridge rehabilitation and replacement projects to consider the need for pedestrian accommodations. When generators of pedestrian activity are present and there is a probable use, NYSDOT policy is to accommodate pedestrians. A Pedestrian Generator Checklist has been completed and included in Appendix B. Based on the proximity of the project to residential communities and other potential pedestrian generators, the checklist indicates a need to accommodate pedestrians on the Kosciuszko Bridge. C.1.w. Planned Development for Area Planned and proposed residential, retail, and commercial development projects in Brooklyn and Queens were identified that could potentially affect traffic within the Kosciuszko Bridge Project study area. Each project is shown in Figure II-61, “Planned Developments,” and Table II-35, Kosciuszko Bridge Project II-89 September 2008 Final Environmental Impact Statement Section II.C which also includes the expected year of completion and estimated traffic generation for the project, where available.

Kosciuszko Bridge Project II-90 September 2008 Final Environmental Impact Statement Section II.C BROOKLYN NEW YORK CITY DEPARTMENT OF SANITATION’S SOLID WASTE MANAGEMENT PLAN As part of their Solid Waste Management Plan (SWMP), the New York City Department of Sanitation (DSNY) proposes to enter into long term (20 year) contracts with either one or two private waste companies in Brooklyn and one private transfer station in Queens. All three sites are located within the Kosciuszko Bridge Project Traffic Study Area. The Comprehensive Solid Waste Management Plan, published in September 2006, identified Allied Waste Services, located at 72 Scott Avenue/598 Scholes Street and Waste Management, located at 215 Varick Avenue, as potential truck-to-rail transfer facilities. The plan proposes that one or both of the facilities would be utilized. The facility (or facilities) would accept DSNY- managed waste as well as some commercial waste. The waste would be transported to the facility via DSNY and private collection vehicles, processed, and loaded into containers. Containerized waste would leave the site on railcar via LIRR. Each of the proposed facilities is currently operating as a private transfer station. The Allied Waste System site would require an expansion of its current permitted capacities. However, any proposed expansion would require a corresponding reduction in capacity at other facilities within the same service district. The Draft Comprehensive Solid Waste Management Plan, published in October 2004, proposed the use of the Waste Management transfer facility located at 485 Scott Avenue, immediately adjacent to and partially underneath the Kosciuszko, as a truck-to-barge transfer facility. However, based on negotiations with Waste Management, this facility is no longer under consideration for that use. It is, however, expected to continue to operate as a private transfer facility. GREENPOINT/WILLIAMSBURG WATERFRONT REZONING In 2005, the New York City Planning Commission rezoned a 184-block area that is currently zoned primarily for manufacturing and industrial uses to allow for a mix of residential and light industrial uses. The city has proposed residential densities as high as R-8 (max floor area ratio [FAR] 6.02). NYCDCP’s analysis projects that the reasonable worst case development scenario would result in the creation of approximately 8,257 dwelling units, and approximately 31,323 m2 (337,160 ft2) of retail/commercial space. According to NYCDCP’s FEIS, by 2013, the projected development would generate a net of 734 vehicle trips in the AM peak hour (8 a.m. – 9 a.m.), 362 vehicle trips in the midday (12 p.m. – 1 p.m.), and 953 vehicle trips in the PM peak hour (5 p.m. – 6 p.m.). KENT AVENUE/FRANKLIN STREET RECONSTRUCTION The New York City Department of Design and Construction (DDC) is responsible for the design and reconstruction of the Franklin Street/Kent Avenue corridor through Greenpoint and Williamsburg, Brooklyn. The project is approximately 5 km (3 mi) in length from the BQE to Commercial Street at the north end of Franklin Street. The roadway is a 12.2 m (40 ft) wide designated local truck route and carries one northbound and one southbound lane of traffic. Parking is generally permitted on both sides of the street. According to the Greenpoint- Williamsburg Rezoning Final Environmental Impact Statement, Franklin Street carries two-way Kosciuszko Bridge Project II-91 September 2008 Final Environmental Impact Statement Section II.C traffic volumes of approximately 610 vehicles per hour in the a.m. peak hour, 640 vehicles per hour in the midday peak hour, and 790 vehicles per hour in the p.m. peak hour, south of Greenpoint Avenue. The project is expected to be completed by the fall of 2006. Once completed, this reconstruction project is expected to have no effect on traffic volumes or patterns. FLUSHING AVENUE RECONSTRUCTION DDC is reconstructing Flushing Avenue from Navy Street to Cypress Avenue. The capital construction project involves installation or reconstruction of the following: distribution water mains, hydrants, combined sewer, sanitary sewer, storm sewer, trunk water main, catch basins, curbs, sidewalks, pedestrian ramps, roadway pavement, traffic lights, street lighting, trees, and landscaping/urban design. Temporary vehicular access restrictions are expected to occur.

As a long term resident of Jamaica, NY, residing along the Grand Central Parkway, I do believe that there is a great need for these proposed improvements. Connecting the LaGuardia Airport to the LIRR and NYCT No. 7 Line is a great idea, but it does not go far enough! Both of these proposed connections are Manhattan centric, that is supporting more ridership between the Airport and the City. This does absolutely nothing to relieve or ease local traffic congestion we experience in Queens on the Long Island Expressway and the Grand Central Parkway with inbound and outbound Long Island traffic. It also does not reduce heavy traffic congestion on the Van Wyck Expressway between JKF and LaGuardia. It would be helpful if the proposed plan included plans to extend the Airtrain light rail service Train which ends at the Jamaica LIRR Station to LaGuardia Airport with a stop at the NYCT No 7 Line. Having lived here for over 40 years and having travelled extensively on business out of both airports, I believe that extending the Airtrain from the Jamaica Station to LaGuardia Airport would be a tremendous improvement and provide many more benefits for the greater NYC area.

  • Dutch Kills Neighborhood Located in Long Island City, Queens
    CHAPTER 16: TRANSIT AND PEDESTRIANS A. INTRODUCTION This chapter of the EIS describes the transit and pedestrian characteristics and potential impacts associated with the proposed actions, which involve zoning map and text amendments for an area encompassing 36 whole and four partial blocks in the Dutch Kills neighborhood located in Long Island City, Queens. The rezoning area, which is adjacent to the Sunnyside Yards and just north of Queens Plaza and the Long Island City central business district (CBD), is generally bounded by 36th Avenue on the north, 41st Avenue on the south, Northern Boulevard on the east, and 23rd Street on the west (see Figure 15-1). As described in detail in earlier chapters of this EIS, the goals of the proposed zoning map and text amendments are to encourage moderate and higher density development near public transportation, and to support continued economic growth in a mixed-use residential, commercial and light industrial community. Overall, the proposed zoning changes would result in an increase in permitted residential density on approximately 50 acres of land, representing 72 percent of the rezoning area, and a decrease in commercial and light industrial density on 39 acres of land representing approximately 53 percent of the rezoning area. Approximately 20 acres, or about 30 percent of the rezoning area would experience no change in permitted residential density, but residential development would be permitted as-of-right. The transportation analyses in this EIS address a development program that could reasonably be constructed by 2017. The analyses in this chapter focus on the subway and local bus modes operated by MTA New York City Transit (NYCT) and MTA Bus, as well as pedestrian trips generated by the 40 projected development sites defined in the Reasonable Worst Case Development Scenario (RWCDS) in Chapter 1, “Project Description.” The locations of the 40 projected development sites and their anticipated uses are shown in Figure 1-6 and listed in Table 1-3 in Chapter 1.
