Streets Week!: Mayor de Blasio Announces Record Creation of Bus and Bicycle Lanes Planned for 2021
Mayor Bill de Blasio and New York City Department of Transportation (DOT) Commissioner Hank Gutman today announced plans to further transform City streets in 2021, by increasing last year’s record protected bike lane installation and nearly doubling last year’s record bus project totals. The administration plans to install 28 miles of new and improved busways and bus lanes in 2021, along with thirty miles of protected bike lanes. Both will be the most installed in one year in New York City history, breaking records set by this administration just last year.
