On Wednesday, DOT will hold a second workshop on Select Bus Service for Woodhaven Boulevard. The chair of the Community Board 9 transportation committee, Kenichi Wilson, told the Queens Courier last week that he opposes dedicated lanes for Woodhaven Boulevard buses, which he said would impede double parking in front of businesses and “create more congestion.” Given that community board opposition and inaction played a significant role in watering down bus improvements on 125th Street in Harlem, it is imperative that advocates of better bus service on Woodhaven get involved in planning this SBS route. Wednesday’s forum starts at 7 p.m. Details are here.
