I am largely unsympathetic to drivers in the city, but not putting up any signs or even a flagger to warn cars that they are driving into a dead end of streets blocked for road work and have only one way out (from the direction they came) is pretty inexcusable. Endless honking.

This remains an embarrassment.
Love that this is just never going to be fixed and we as taxpayers are going to have to pay out the inevitable lawsuit damages when someone is injured by this hazard, which is well-known to the city. @StreetsblogNYC @dahvnyc

In the latest twist in the battle to lead Brooklyn Dems, reformers seeking to oust Rodneyse Bichotte Hermelyn just scored a win The appellate court reversed an earlier stay on a Supreme Court order, and threw out controversial rules pushed by Rodneyse to help her remain in power

Another great @NYCMayor infrastructure fix of low-hanging fruit. After years of failed, half-hearted attempts to fix the pooling issue on the Brooklyn Bridge bike lane, @NYC_DOT regraded the roadway and now it drains. Bon voyage Lakes Gutman, Ydanis, and Polly. cc @StreetsblogNYC
Very funny to me, and emblematic of the general deterioration of municipal capacity under Adams, that after 3 or 4 failed tries the city just gave up on ever fixing the Great Lakes of the Brooklyn Bridge bike lane (Lake Gutman, the Sea of Ydanis, and Trottenberg Pond).

Zohran should do the funniest thing ever and restrict press access/questions to just social media personalities
President Donald Trump will meet with Mayor Zohran Mamdani at Gracie Mansion tomorrow, City Hall confirms. Story incoming.

The terrible news about the teenager killed on 14th street reminded me about the motor scooter rider killed by City Hall/the entrance to the Brooklyn Bridge bike lane (one of the most surveilled spots in the city). Did we ever get surveillance footage of what happened there?

It’s a Labor Day weekend miracle! Shout out to the @ConEdison social team for escalating this until it was (eventually) fixed.

Man, it only took one night of being forced to bike across the Brooklyn Bridge pedestrian boardwalk while the bike lane gets paved to remind me how great of an improvement the dedicated bike lane is. Thanks again, @BilldeBlasio @Pollytrott.

Would love someone to ask Tisch about this next time she touts crime stats. Just outright hypocrisy.
Replying to @chayesmatthew
In the adjacent criminal court where each driver likely works, subway riders who evade the $3 fare are regularly arraigned after 24 hours under arrest, in a jail cell, etc. Congestion pricing is ~$9. Parking downtown (legally, in a garage) for the day costs ~$50.

Looks like the law Rodneyse and her cronies broke was this one (Election Law 2-106(4)). thecityreporter.nyc/2026/09/…
One of the organizers of today’s rally has repeatedly called the party’s proposed rules changes “an illegal coup.” Is that a figure of speech? What law(s) are being broken? 🤔 instagram.com/reel/Dca6bnCJx…

even after one of these high-speed stand-up scooters (which go 50 mph faster than the legal limit) caused a death on the Queensboro Bridge, there’s been no uptick in enforcement to keep them out of bike lanes and off narrow crossings like the Brooklyn Bridge. total govt failure.

Transit in New York is just too damn loud. The seemingly-endless onslaught of announcements not only annoys riders, but impairs accessibility, making navigating transit far more difficult than it needs to be. ETA's latest report discusses announcements:

We are well into the third (3rd!) month of this @ConEdison utility grate being dangerously open. The response is not to close it, but to block the bike lane w gates. This is embarrassing. Why can’t @NYC_DOT @alexaforcouncil @CMAlexaAviles @agounardes @Sen_Gounardes help fix this?

Hey while the news is obsessed that Mayor Mamdani has a groupchat so influencers can promote that a library is now open on sundays itd be great if just once they reported how 1 Billion Dollars of our tax money is spent by the NYPD annually on PR alone - feels like too much!

It speaks volumes about how drivers know NYPD doesn’t enforce traffic laws anymore that they feel comfortable doing shit like this right in front of a precinct and dozens of cop cars. There’s not even the vague notion that there will be consequences for endangering others.

This utility grate outside the @ConEdison facility at 3d Ave. and 29th St. is entering its third month of being open. At this point I can only assume ConEd won’t close it until someone gets seriously injured. Help us @NYC_DOT @CMAlexaAviles @alexaforcouncil.
