Top officials in Mayor Zohran Mamdani’s Department of Transportation (DOT) figure to face sharp questions from members of the City Council’s Transportation Committee on Tuesday over the agency’s struggles under former Mayor Eric Adams to build the number of bus and bike lanes required by the 2019 Streets Master Plan.
Recently-appointed Transportation Committee Chair Shaun Abreu (D-Manhattan) said he called the hearing to “look beneath the hood” of the agency’s failing year after year to meet the plan’s now-expired mandates for constructing new bus and bike lanes.
