Prospect Park West in Brooklyn




A bike lane along Prospect Park West in Brooklyn is the focus of a lawsuit against the Transportation Department.

The lawsuit, filed by a group with close ties to Iris Weinshall, the city’s transportation commissioner from 2000 to 2007 and the wife of Senator Charles E. Schumer, accuses the Transportation Department of misleading residents about the benefits of the lane, cherry-picking statistics on safety improvements and collaborating with bicycle activists to quash community opposition.

The two incompetent groups are Seniors for Safety and Neighbors for Better Bike Lanes they want the Prospect Park lanes removed.
