the street is not wide enough to remove a good part of it where cars cannot pass.

Our Children's & Seniors safety comes before hazardous Bike Lanes.

The risks of creating a bike lane in front of a high school far outweigh the benefits. If buses can't pull up in front of the school the drop off and dismissal will potentially become very dangerous.

Our first priority as a society is to our children who are the future. While bike lanes are valuable, they do not belong on the block of a school. The safety and transportation needs of our children must always come before general leisure activities. Thank you.

Bike lanes should not come at the expense of pedestrian safety, especially near a school.

This would be very dangerous for the students attending Manhattan High School for Girls. our children's safety must come first!

Very dangerous for the girls getting on and off the buses, and for the general flow of traffic during school hours

This street (East 70th) is not a smart safety choice for a bike lane. Put it on a block that does not have a school on it.

As Executive Director of Manhattan High School for Girls, I feel very strongly that there are several very good reasons not to have a bike lane on 70th Street: 1. Our school has over 250 people coming and going and getting on and off school buses all day long - unsafe!! 2. This is an ambulance through street - there are hospitals on E. 70th and many ambulances drive through daily. 3. the street is narrow - dangerous for bikers, drivers & pedestrians.

a bike lane in this location would be dangerous to a large number of children and disrupt the functioning of our school. Please do not place the bike lane on e. 70th
