Since February 2014, cyclists have endured a NYC DOT caused pothole filled bike path.
The history is that the bike path was in very bad shape, but the DOT project started in February 2014 cut large squares which you can see in the pictures. They exposed the bare metal which becomes very slippery when wet. This has caused many accidents including the author.

Please contact your state and city representatives and refer to this article and ask for a safe bike path. Where is Vision Zero? The grade for this DOT project is ZERO! Hopefully, that is not what we mean by Vision Zero!
