Ask For Changes At Prospect Expressway/Church Avenue Intersection
Following the tragic death of neighbor Ngozi Agbim yesterday as she was struck while crossing Ocean Parkway/Prospect Expressway at Church Avenue, neighbors have been asking what can be done to that intersection to make it safer.
For those in his district, you may already know that this was in fact a winning project in Councilmember Brad Lander’s Participatory Budgeting process last year:
Pedestrian Hazards at the Prospect Expressway – $200,000
Repairs & additions to badly damaged and dangerous 9 lane Prospect Expressway pedestrian crossing at Church Avenue, area and landscape. 606 votes
Lander is trying to move this project ahead with the city, and you can help by calling to ask for a quicker action. Call Lander’s office today at 718-499-1090 if you would like to see safety improvements at this intersection.
