DOT to repave Borough Park streets
Greenfield obtained additional funding for project
Motorists who drive on pothole-plagued streets in three Brooklyn neighborhoods — Borough Park, Bensonhurst and Midwood — will soon be driving on much smoother roadways thanks to a Department of Transportation (DOT) project taking place this summer.
Councilmember David Greenfield, who represents the three neighborhoods, secured an additional $200,000 on top of what was already allocated in the city budget for the road work project.
Repaving consistently ranks high among the priorities of constituents, according to Greenfield, who said residents often vote for street repairs in the annual participatory budgeting process.
