Don’t forget – [Councilman Brad Lander](http://bradlander.com/blog/2014/12/11/next-steps-toward-kensingtonwindsor-terrace-street-safety?ref=bklyner.com) and [Community Board 7](http://www.brooklyncb7.org/?ref=bklyner.com) are holding a meeting tomorrow, January 8, with the city Department of Transportation, including Commissioner Polly Trottenberg, to address a series of concerns about street safety in our neighborhood.

The meeting will be held at 6:30pm at [PS 130](http://ps130brooklyn.com/?ref=bklyner.com) (70 Ocean Parkway). Following the death of [Mohammad Naiem Uddin](/?s=naiem), the 14-year-old boy who was killed in November by a hit-and-run driver at E. 7th Street and Caton Avenue, numerous neighbors have said something needs to be done to address pedestrian safety in [an area plagued by dangerous traffic conditions](/politics/what-needs-to-happen-to-make-our-streets-safer).

During the meeting, DOT officials, legislators, and others will discuss the steps that the city will take to make the streets safer – both around the area where Naiem was hit and more broadly in Kensington and Windsor Terrace. Several weeks before Naiem’s death, Lander sent [this letter](https://www.scribd.com/doc/247756312/Letter-to-NYC-DOT-11-6-14?ref=bklyner.com) to the DOT, [identifying the needs for improvements at E. 7th and Caton](/politics/what-needs-to-happen-to-make-our-streets-safer) – where a new school, PS/IS 437 is being built, as well as nearby. At the January 8 meeting, the DOT will present plans to address these concerns.

Everyone is welcome to attend the meeting, but you’re asked to RSVP [here](http://bradlander.nationbuilder.com/kwt%5Ftraffic%5Fmeeting?ref=bklyner.com).
