It is a bridge not far at all.
A new path for bike and pedestrians has been opened on the Robert F. Kennedy on Monday, giving New York residents an opportunity to be a chance or hoof between Manhattan, Bronx and Randal island.
MTA Bigs has held the pieces and festive bikes to celebrate the new path, which follows the completion of bicycle and other pedestrian roads on the Cross Bay Veterans Memorial and Henry Hudson Bridge bridge.
The path replaces pedestrian paths only on the Manhattan Bridge and Bronx, which extends on Randal Island.
“Infantry and motorcyclists have a continuous road free of car between Manhattan, Bronx and Randalls Island, with Queens to follow up,” said Jimmy Torres-Springer, President of MTA Building and Development Company.
Officials said that the car -free track in Queens is expected to be completed in 2027.
The officials said that when you are completed, there will be a path that corresponds to the bicycles that are compatible with ASTORIA verbs to Randal Island.
The bridge communications are part of an investment of $ 128 million in the structure of bicycles, pedestrians and micromopter made by MTA.
“From a large scale, we realize that when Transit remains the option to travel to the overwhelming majority of the New York residents, there has been tremendous growth in alternative micrometer options such as bikes and motorcycles, joint and personal,” said Janeo Lieber, MTA president.
“Far from being a threat to collective crossing, the MTA trend gives an opportunity to extend the arrival of the transportation system to societies that have a few railway service, or slightly far from the train station.”
