The Sustainable Streets Index provides data on recent trends in traffic, parking, travel and safety. It also includes a section on "project indicators", an assessment of 12 major DOT projects completed by the end of 2008. This assessment covers the impacts on safety, usage for motor vehicles, cyclists, pedestrians, bus riders and/or travel times in the project areas.
Green Light for Midtown created new pedestrian areas on Broadway in Times Square and Herald Square. DOT collected extensive data on travel times, traffic volumes, pedestrian volumes and traffic accidents in the months just prior and just following project implementation. Findings show that travel speeds have improved throughout West Midtown, and safety has also been vastly improved as a result of this project.
This report is a street design manual that sets the foundation for future coherence in design and excellence for New York City streetscapes. Included are standard and optional choices for creating streets as well as plans for the future implementation of this design manual.
This document addresses the program known as Bicycling Social, an idea that revolves around using event-based and social marketing to promote cycling in New York City.
