Wong asks how dangerous intersections reach priority list
Wong asks how dangerous intersections are escalated to the Traffic Stat priority list. Rivera says NYPD follows data on fatalities, injuries, and collisions, will speak with Queens North and the local precinct, but cannot speak to the specific intersection.
Then my follow-up question would be, when we identify dangerous intersections, like in this case where a child was hit,
community boards were notified, my office has been notified, and what is the process that gets escalated to the traffic stat priority list that an intersection needs work?
And then how would I know, or how would we know that it made it to your priority list?
So we take a look at data.
I haven't personally looked at that location, but we can certainly get back to your office.
But, you know, we'll speak to the borough itself, Queens North.
We'll speak to the local precinct and get a number of operations.
In place and will support the initiatives.
But typically we go where the data takes us, where we see spikes in fatalities, injuries, or collisions.
So I can't speak to this particular intersection where the collision happened, but that is typically our response.
Okay, thank you.
Thank you, Chair.
I have a round two questions later.
Thank you.
Sounds great.
