Agency Asks: What Would Make Atlantic and Flatbush Safer?
DOT Holds Hearing Seeking Input on Crash-Prone Downtown B’klyn Intersection
Call it a place where an accident doesn’t wait to happen.
City Department of Transportation (DOT) officials will host a public workshop Wednesday at the YWCA at 30 Third Ave., to hear what local residents think would cut down on crashes at Atlantic and Flatbush avenues, one of the busiest — and most treacherous — crossings in the borough.
The crossing where the Atlantic Terminal mall and Barclays Center arena meet is so crash-prone that 150 vehicle crashes were reported there in the first six months of 2015.
