A TRAFFIC SAFETY PETITION FOR CATON AVENUE

A petition posted here urges Community Board 7 (CB7) to approve the Department of Transportation's (DOT) proposal for "Caton Avenue Pedestrian Safety Improvements." The proposal aims to make conditions safer for pedestrians, cyclists, and motorists on Caton Avenue and a few side streets.

Neighborhood resident Meema Spadola will deliver the signatures to CB7 at its next meeting, scheduled for Wednesday, June 17th, at 6:30 p.m. in the board's office. Everyone is welcome to attend this public meeting.

The board itself has stated that the community's support for the proposal will be key to it getting passed, so please add your name and voice to the petition.

DOT’s proposal is posted here.

Meeting location: the Board Room of Community Board 7's office in Sunset Park at 4201 4th Avenue. The entrance is on 43rd Street.
