Proposed Truck Route for 3rd Avenue From 65th Street to 86th Street
Last night, Community Board 10 held their meeting over Zoom. Councilwoman Kayla Santosuosso and Senator Andrew Gounardes did not attend (go ahead and tell me they were busy…too busy to join a Zoom meeting for an hour from their home).
Community Board 10 revealed that the NYC Department of Transportation wants to run a truck route through 3rd Avenue from 65th Street to 86th Street.
The DOT does not care that the new truck route will cause safety concerns, pollution, noise or impact people dining outside of restaurants and cafes in Bay Ridge.
Community Board 10 voted to send a letter to DOT and elected officials outlining concerns and requesting traffic studies, enforcement details for overweight trucks and considerations for alternatives routes (such as 7th Avenue).
Members of Community Board 10 want a public workshop with DOT officials to engage the community.
A handful of CB 10 members were upset by this. Merchant on 3rd Avenue are not going to appreciate this. In Sunset Park, 3rd Avenue is commercial and it’s not the center of the community. Look:
Today, CB 10 should have shared the information that they received from the city on social media. They aren’t good at sharing information.
Councilmember Kayla Santosuosso should have shared the information today as well.
Senator Andrew Gounardes represents a lot of the area where the truck route is, He should have spoken up, but as usual he is silent. Gounardes didn’t even speak up for the Citibike riders!
Bay Ridge, if this is the first time you are hearing this topic, then you know our politicians and Community Board are doing a poor job at communicating with the community.

Ridgites Piled Too Much Snow in the Street – The Plow and Salt Truck Got Stuck
Photos: Marianne C.F.
There is a lot of snow out there.
Some Brooklynites are digging out their driveways and then dumping the snow into the street.
This plow was stuck for four hours on a Bay Ridge street and had to be towed out. The salter (above) also was stuck because there was too much snow. Take it easy, Bay Ridge.

Andrew Gounardes, The Social Media Parrot
At 1:45 pm, NYC 311 shared this message about schools being open:
At 2:56 pm, Andrew Gounardes retweeted NYC’s message. Gounardes thinks he is giving us “a heads up.”
At 4:30 pm, Andrew Gounardes saw his political friends tweet about safety, so he decided to join them:
As the state senator for the area, Andrew Gounardes should have immediately shared that the roads were not cleared like other parts of NYCt, but parrots don’t have original thoughts.
Andrew Gounardes, as a parent didn’t consider safety at all. All he cared about was tweeting, not being a leader in our community. At the end of the day, he copied other NYC politicians and pretended he was against school opening.
Remember to vote Andrew Gounardes out in November.
