SoHo Broadway Partner: Learn more from NYC DOT and share your feedback on the future of Canal Street on 11/24 or via survey!

The NYC Department of Transportation (NYC DOT) is proposing a comprehensive redesign of Canal Street in Manhattan. The redesign would make the corridor safer for all road users by enhancing pedestrian safety, expanding the bicycle network, creating open space, and calming traffic.

Goals for the Redesign of Canal Street include:

•  Relieve pedestrian crowding & improve sidewalk accessibility 
•  Simplify complex intersections for all users
•  Improve bike connections
•  Rebalance vehicle space with public space 

After hosting a series of engagement sessions in September and October, NYC DOT is presenting its proposed redesign of Canal Street on Monday, November 24th at 6:00 p.m at a joint meeting of Community Boards 1, 2 and 3.  Doors open at 5:45 pm. The joint meeting will take place at MS 131, 100 Hester Street (between Forsythe and Eldridge).
