Join us to walk under the Brooklyn-Queens Expressway from Macri Triangle to the Under the K Bridge Park and physically experience a section of the BQE North corridor. We will be joined by special guests, including neighbors from the community and experts, who will share their knowledge about the BQE. Additionally, participants will enjoy interactive activities to better understand the impact of the BQE and to inspire its transformation.

10:00 am: Gather at Macri Triangle (at the intersection of Metropolitan, Meeker, and Union Avenues) for coffee and welcome remark

10:30 am: Tour begins

*In case of severe weather, the BQE Walk & Talk will take place the next day at the same time and location. All registered participants will receive an alert on the evening of February 24 if the event needs to be postponed.

We’re excited that the NYC Department of Transportation (NYCDOT) wants to fix the Brooklyn-Queens Expressway (BQE) in Brooklyn and is committed to working with communities along the BQE to set a shared vision for this project.

Currently, communities divided by the BQE experience increased noise and air pollution, while also having limited access to jobs and other important resources.

We support this effort to reconnect communities divided by the BQE, which starts with us coming together to shape the future of this transit corridor.
