DOT admits they made a mistake with Clear Curbs

From the NY Post:

The de Blasio administration is putting the brakes on a controversial pilot program aimed at limiting deliveries along some of the Big Apple’s busiest commercial corridors following complaints it was killing local businesses.

City officials confirmed Monday they are halting the “Clear Curbs” program along affected zones in Queens and are working with community stakeholders to “adjust” the program along parts of Flatbush Avenue and other bustling sections of Brooklyn.

The six-month program, which began in March, won’t be altered in any way along its remaining, most traffic-heavy zones in Midtown.

NO ONE IS GOING TO GET FIRED AND ALL WILL BE SWEPT UNDER THE RUG. DIBOZZO DOESN'T CARE ABOUT THE CITY ANYMORE. HIS INTERESTS ARE IN BUILDING UP HIS NATIONAL PROFILE FOR A POTENTIAL GIG AT THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY NATIONAL COMMITTEE $$$

Good, and maybe now they can shed some light on the bike lane nonsense hurting small businesses along Queens Blvd- another dud of a plan from deBozo.

The only thing this administration would consider a failure is if it's not hurting Queens communities enough.

DOT hasn't a clue how to improve pedestrian and traffic movement in business districts. Not a clue!
