We did it! Many years of activism came to fruition today as the #MoreSpaceQBB south outer roadway was finally repurposed as a pedestrian-only path. People can now walk and jog across safely. You can even walk side-by-side!!

Can we now please get rid of the cars on the south sidewalk of the Queensboro bridge, and put the pedestrians there, and give bikes adequate space on the north sidepath?
Please?

this is incredible stuff. most state DOTs would spend tens of billions on highway expansions to try and see numbers like this (that wouldn’t even pan out anyway thanks to induced demand lol)

Five (six if you include me) commuters smooshed into a tight, four-lane space with no room to safely pass, one false move and everyone gets bloodied and injuried…while the South Outer Roadway was *empty* as usual. NYC Mayor, you will never live this down. #MoreSpaceQBB

NYC DOT needs to stop delaying the opening of the Queens Borough Bridge South Outer Roadway and open it to pedestrians now. Squeezing everyone into the NOR is increasingly dangerous! #MoreSpaceQBB

Idk what this means, but today there was a big crew of workers on the #MoreSpaceQBB fixing stuff, and I smelled paint? They seem busier than usual. So maybe they’re almost done with the decking project that allegedly is responsible for the delay opening up the SOR…?

On my way to the #MoreSpaceQBB march, I witnessed a guy on an e-bike make an unsafe pass (passed on the right, for no reason— he could have waited till it was clear) almost smash into a guy jogging. The narrow shared path is egregiously dangerous. We need more space!!

@nyc-dot.bsky.social has long known of the dangers on the #QBB NOR & finally after many years, crashes & injuries, designed a plan to improve safety by opening the SOR to create #MoreSpaceQBB. But it is now inexplicably delaying that implementation & exposing the City to liability.
![Picture showing a portion of the Court of Appeals decision in Turturro v. City of New York, discussing a municipality’s potential liability for road safety with the following portion highlighted: "an unjustifiable delay in implementing [a remedial] plan constitutes a breach of the municipality's duty to the public just as surely as if it had totally failed to study the known condition in the first instance" (Friedman, 67 NY2d at 286).](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:ivjhwengngozguxc2tv3pkg2/bafkreifk2bma5md5b5olj3xbfrysxuplvm4qikznhxdsyqc5eafhdjmpxq)

Reupping this due to late night deep thoughts on how Adams & other mayors have successfully blocked #MoreSpaceQBB for so long DESPITE local electeds (state & city) supporting it. The mayor is ridiculously powerful. NYC desperately needs better mayors.
