DOT will soon reveal its plan to redesign Times Plaza, the triangle formed by Flatbush, Atlantic, and Fourth avenues in Brooklyn. Located near the largest transit hub in Brooklyn, the area around Times Plaza, outside Barclays Center, is one of the most dangerous places in the borough to walk.

Three big street redesign projects are on the calendar. Queens Community Board 6 will take up the Rego Park phase of DOT's Queens Boulevard redesign; Manhattan CB 9 will get a look at a revised plan for bike lanes and road diet on Amsterdam Avenue north of 110th Street; and DOT goes to Sunset Park for the second workshop about the redesign of Fourth Avenue.

The first week of Bike Month is incredibly busy on the Streetsblog calendar, with public meetings about several major street safety projects, plus Transportation Alternatives' national Vision Zero Cities conference.

Tomorrow, DOT will present a plan to add a protected bike lane to Broadway by Van Cortlandt Park, from 240th Street to the city line.
