New York City Commissioner of Transportation Ydanis Rodriguez sees his mission very clearly. “We believe in implementing infrastructure that meets people’s needs.”
His goal, which aligns with that of Mayor Eric Adams, is to make the city the “safest in the nation for pedestrians and cyclists,” pointing to 135 projects implemented this year to improve safety, Rodriguez told attendees Sept. 16 at the ENR NYNJ Infrastructure Forum, held in Manhattan.
