Mamdani, DOT fix a dubious drop on Delancey Street that plagued Williamsburg Bridge bike lane users for years

Mayor Zohran Mamdani stood with city Department of Transportation (DOT) officials on Tuesday as agency workers eliminated a slight roadway dip that had plagued cyclists exiting the Williamsburg Bridge into Manhattan for years — throwing the final shovel of asphalt to finish the job.

Mamdani, who has made a slew of transportation-related announcements since taking the oath of office inside the old City Hall subway station last week, said his DOT moved quickly to make the hazardous drop into a smooth ramp in response to feedback from “countless New Yorkers.”
