Show Notes
New York City is revamping the Manhattan entrance to the Brooklyn Bridge this spring, separating cyclists and pedestrians for the first time. The project includes a new bike path along Centre Street and wider crosswalks, aiming to complete it before the FIFA World Cup. Since separating lanes on the bridge in 2021, cyclist numbers have doubled, and pedestrian crossings reach nearly 30,000 daily. The changes aim to enhance safety, attract more cyclists, and boost the local economy, aligning with broader street upgrades for the World Cup crowds.
