14th st & 1st Ave Friday night. Apparently multiple pedestrians and a citibiker run over by a massive truck. Please be careful guys — even if you have the right of way, drivers can be extremely reckless.

Northbound from Fordham to Kingsbridge. Paved but not painted and, amazingly, lacking a single illegally parked car. (That van at the end is across Kingsbridge, after the bike lane ends.)

Despite "community" opposition, DOT has been pouring concrete and marking new bike lanes around Wingate Park/High School.

Lines are painted, and these new lanes are rideable (though the protected segments still need fresh Kermit):

• Kingston Av 2-way protected from Winthrop to Rutland
• Kingston Av n/b protected from Rutland to E New York
• Rutland Rd e/b unprotected from Flatbush to Brooklyn Av
• Rutland Rd e/b protected from Brooklyn to Kingston
• Fenimore st w/b unprotected from Brooklyn to Flatbush

Still to come are:

• Brooklyn Av s/b protected from E New York to Rutland
• Brooklyn Av 2-way protected from Rutland to Winthrop
• Winthrop w/b protected from Kingston to Brooklyn

When completed, the project will add 1.2 miles of new protected bike lanes and 1.6 miles of new unprotected bike lanes.

Bike lanes and pedestrian spaces should be unremarkable in New York City. These things should be considered the bare minimum of what we would expect.
