You're Invited to Join Us for a Walk and Talk about the RI Bike Ramp and Lane Project this Saturday at 10 a.m. at the Motorgate Atrium, 688 Main Street, on Roosevelt Island.
In June 2018, the Roosevelt Island Operating Corporation (RIOC) procured Dewberry Engineers and their team including Mathews Nielson Landscape Architects to design the Roosevelt Island Bike Ramp and East Side Bike Lane project.
The goal is to construct a bike ramp that conveniently connects bicyclists from the top of the Roosevelt Island Bridge down to the East Promenade and then provides a safe path for bicyclists along the eastern waterfront of Roosevelt Island away from Main Street vehicular traffic.
The total budget for this project is approximately $14 million with a project schedule of four years.
Throughout the design phase of the project, several public meetings will be held with the first one this Saturday. We look forward to you joining us!
