Update: This vote has been postponed. Tomorrow, Queens Community Board 1 will decide whether to endorse a DOT plan for the beginnings of an east-west bike route, consisting of bike lanes and sharrows, on 31st Avenue. This phase would run between Vernon Boulevard and the BQE, with a second phase extending to the Flushing Bay Promenade.

Local volunteers with the Queens Bike Initiative advocated for the project, which has passed the CB 1 transportation committee. But some committee members, including chair Bob Piazza, are against the plan. Since DOT rarely implements street safety projects over a community board’s objection, this meeting is an important moment for supporters to make their case.

Here are more highlights this week — full event listings are on the Streetsblog calendar.

• Saturday: Times Plaza — the triangle formed by Atlantic, Flatbush, and Fourth avenues — is surrounded by some of Brooklyn’s deadliest intersections. Join the People First on Atlantic Avenue team to ask people where they feel most threatened, and how they’d like to improve safety. 11 a.m.
