Brewer credits Judge Wang and the Midtown Community Justice Center for initiating a pedicab task force with the New York Pedicab Alliance, Central Park Conservancy, Times Square Alliance, DA, and NYPD. She cites the report 'Fixing the Pedicab Problem' and says stakeholders still meet weekly.

Gale A. Brewer

So last year, as you heard earlier, Judge Wang and his amazing staff at the Midtown Community Justice Center initiated a pedicab task force, including the New York Pedicab Alliance, the Central Park Conservancy, the Times Square Alliance,

DA, NYPD, and many others, including our office, and they produced Fixing the Pedicab Problem.

Gale A. Brewer

That particular judge is awesome, and he's always trying to find ways to change policy as opposed to just doing what he does in the court.

So we took a hard look at what's not working.

And this report has clear and practical solutions.

Gale A. Brewer

We meet every single week still to talk about pedicabs.

Fixing the pedicab problem, a roadmap to reform has been helpful.
