NYPD steps up gridlock enforcement around the Lincoln Tunnel

Over the last few weeks traffic agents are posted at 36th , 38th , 40th and 43rd Streets and 9th Avenue giving out tickets to all drivers that regularly block the box including the pedestrian crossings as they exit the tunnel. We applaud such enforcement which relieves congestion and makes for safe crossing at the least cost to the city. CHEKPEDS is sending a congratulatory letter to NYPD and asking for this effort to be expanded to more intersections and additonal time periods. Let us know if your intersection is often gridlocked.
