RE: Taking Back the Streets (BroadsheetDAILY March 27)

To the editor,

How does this new plan affect the M55 bus that already has to crawl down Broadway, past FiDi and around the Custom House to travel up Church St.

It is almost always late.

Please please don’t do anything that slows down the only way many of us have to get to work!

Local Advocacy Group Seeks to Make Pedestrians King in Lower Manhattan
