But not only is there a lack of willingness to engage other agencies, even city agencies are reluctant to engage the help of other city agencies.City DOT studied improving the intersection of Guider and Coney Island Avenue for ten years which was finally concluded. They were asked to add a lane to Coney Island Avenue for about 100 feet to improve traffic flow over the Belt Parkway Bridge so it doesn't back up for 200 feet. Their response was they would have to acquire the land from NYC Parks, so they would not attempt it. That was the same branch of government. You mean to say if they started the process at the beginning of the project, it would not have been completed for ten years when the project ended? That is absolutely ridiculous. Something is very wrong. |
