Listen "How advocates are pushing to make the city's streets safer"
Episode Synopsis
2021 is on track to be the second deadliest year for traffic deaths since Mayor Bill de Blasio launched his Vision Zero initiative. A group of advocates is pushing Albany to pass eight different statewide measures so New York City can make changes to reduce traffic-related injuries and fatalities. Pat Kiernan speaks with the founder of Families for Safe Streets Amy Cohen and NY1 Transit Reporter Dan Rivoli about the hesitancy by New Yorkers and city officials to make changes that will impact how our streets are regulated.
