This educational report is a collaborative effort of the Design Trust for Public Space and the New York City Taxi & Limousine Commission, published principally by the Design Trust for Public Space. It is the culmination of the Taxi 07 project, a program to facilitate innovative cab designs and propose improvements to the technologies, regulations, and public spaces that support the taxi system.
This report, prepared by the Department of Transportation, presents vehicular volumes and historical comparisons across the Bronx-Westchester, Queens-Nassau, Manhattan-New Jersey, Staten Island-New Jersey, and Brooklyn-Queens screenlines.
Since 1948, the Department of Transportation has monitored traffic flow on 47 bridges operated by the City of New York. This report summarizes vehicular volumes, classification data, and trends for the 47 bridges that cross over water, as well as the nine bridges and tunnels operated by the Metropolitan Transportation Authority and the six bridges and tunnels operated by the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey.
The Department of Transportation has accelerated its efforts to improve pedestrian and traffic safety at locations that have repeatedly been the site of traffic or pedestrian-related accidents. These efforts have sharply reduced the number of traffic-related accidents and fatalities, which are now at historic lows.
