THE PROBLEM

Current Proposed Fixes for the BQE are Problematic

  • Current BQE problems of noise and air pollution remain unabated
  • Reconstruction will entail decades of traffic disruption for BQE motorists
  • Large scale temporary highway mars historic residential neighborhood
  • Historic Triple Cantilever is destroyed and replaced with generic superhighway structure
  • Loss of the Promenade for many years
  • Existing barriers caused by BQE to access to Brooklyn Bridge Park are unimproved
