Officials from NYC Department of Transportation (DOT) and the Metropolitan Transportation Authority (MTA) held a ribbon-cutting ceremony along East Gun Hill Road in Norwood on Tuesday, Oct. 31, marking the completion of the ‘Bus Priority and Safety Project.’ The project consisted of a dedicated bus lane and two bus boarding islands along a section of the roadway which transport officials say create a safer and faster bus service for the 40,000 riders traveling along the route everyday.
