Third Avenue and 57th St Bus Boarding Island and Pedestrian Safety Improvements
Currently, M101, M102, and M103 buses do not stop between 55th Street and 61st Street, yet 57th Street is a major destination. Right-turn lanes for Queensboro Bridge-bound traffic between 57th Street and 59th Street preclude buses from accessing the curb for a conventional bus stop. Additionally, 57th Street is a high-crash intersection for pedestrians. To address these issues, DOT plans to install a bus boarding island between 56th Street and 57th Street providing a new bus stop at 57th Street. The project will also make pedestrian safety improvements including the elimination of left-turn/pedestrian conflicts, increased pedestrian crossing time, and added protected crossing time for pedestrians.
