A Local Law to amend the administrative code of the city of New York, in relation to the department of social services issuing replacement transit benefit cards
👍 Positive
2025-10-09 · Sponsor · NYC Council – Legistar · ↑ helps grade
Easier and low-cost replacement of reduced-fare transit cards maintains access to transit, supporting mode shift from driving and reducing traffic exposure risks for pedestrians and cyclists. The modest fee only after the first replacement limits barriers, so net effects on vulnerable road users are slightly positive via fewer cars and safety-in-numbers.

👍 Positive
2025-10-09 · Sponsor · NYC Council – Legistar · ↑ helps grade
Ensuring quick, low-cost replacement of reduced-fare transit cards supports continuous transit use for low-income riders, modestly encouraging mode shift away from driving. Increased transit ridership can reduce vehicle trips and improve safety-in-numbers for pedestrians and cyclists, though the impact is likely small.
A Local Law to amend the administrative code of the city of New York, in relation to installing stop signs or traffic control signals at all crosswalks
👎 Negative
2025-09-25 · Sponsor · NYC Council – Legistar · ↓ hurts grade
While added control could calm some unsignalized intersections, a blanket mandate for stop signs/signals at every crosswalk risks widespread noncompliance, more delay/turning conflicts, and police/enforcement burdens on people walking and biking. Requiring cyclists to stop at nearly every block would discourage riding and divert focus from proven systemic fixes like road diets, daylighting, and protected networks.
