Tomorrow Brannan Will Vote for Covered Bike Lanes for Manhattan
10/30 Update: Brannan didn’t even mention the vote. If it was so big and great, why did he fail to mention it?
Tomorrow you will see hipocracy at its finest. Councilman Justin Brannan will vote in favor of Corey Johnson’s bill $1.7 Billion Dollar Bill to “end car culture.” See here or here or here
It’s almost 11:00 pm and Brannan didn’t even mention the bill on any of his social media accounts, even though many other politicians and organizations did.
If you remember, last Spring, Brannan overrode Community Board 10 to install bike lanes with paint on some streets. You are now seeing our streets being grinded and looking like a mess to accommodate the painted bike lanes that Brannan called into Keith Brey (Brooklyn DOT)
Plus Brannan’s family has a huge SUV and he has admitted to using Uber…a lot. People in Brooklyn don’t have fast trains that can get them around.
Uber beat NYC taxis at their own game. Absolutely. I like Uber. I use it a lot. But it’s gotten out of control.

Tomorrow the politicians will cheer, as if they have done something for all of NYC, but we all know it’s just “the chosen parts” of NYC which will receive better designed roads and covered bike lanes.
Wouldn’t it be something if they passed a law that actually helped people in Bay Ridge?
