Since 1948, the City of New York has been monitoring traffic flow over the 20 bridges and tunnels serving Manhattan. The 2003 Manhattan River Crossings report, published annually by the New York City Department of Transportation since 1972, presents vehicular volumes, classification, and trends for all bridge and tunnel facilities serving Manhattan.
The 2003 New York City Screenline Traffic Flow Report presents vehicular volumes and historical comparisons across the Bronx-Westchester, Queens-Nassau, Manhattan-New Jersey, Staten Island-New Jersey, and Brooklyn-Queens screenlines.
Fulton Street is a major east-west commercial street in Brooklyn, serving the communities of Fort Greene and Bedford-Stuyvesant. It cuts across the street grid, resulting in the formation of irregular intersections. This creates problems for pedestrians, buses, trucks and general traffic. The Department of Transportation developed improvements for a 1.7 mile segment of Fulton Street between Flatbush and Nostrand Avenues.
This 2003 report summarizes vehicular volumes, classification data, and trends for the 47 bridges that cross over water. Volume and trend information is also presented for the nine bridges and tunnels operated by the MTA Bridges and Tunnels and the six bridges and tunnels operated by the Port Authority of NY and NJ.
