Brooklyn Spoke, a biking blog, has a lot of nice things to say about Councilmember Brad Lander for all the things he's done to support livable streets, such as traffic calming on Prospect Park West and a push to set traffic signals in Prospect Park to flashing yellow during car-free hours. He's also been visible when public transit riders have problems:
When it comes to transit, Brad has done some tremendous work for subway and bus riders. When it was announced that F and G service at the Fort Hamilton and 15th Street Stations would be disrupted due to construction, Brad immediately lobbied for the MTA to help Kensington and Windsor Terrace residents with shuttle buses or extensions of existing bus routes.
We can add that he and his staff are always available and very responsive. If you ever have concerns or issues in the neighborhood, you might consider reaching out to them.
