SUMMARY:BQE Central Events
DESCRIPTION:The Brooklyn-Queens Expressway (BQE) is an essential component of the region’s transportation network. It not only serves to connect Brooklyn with key access points in Manhattan\, Queens\, and on Staten Island\, but it also carries regional trucks and other traffic\, keeping this traffic off local Brooklyn streets. \nBQE Central is the approximately 1.5-mile City-owned section of the BQE (Interstate-278) between Atlantic Avenue and Sands Street in Brooklyn. This section includes multiple bridge structures – including the historic 0.4-mile-long “Triple Cantilever”. The BQE Central Project focuses on rehabilitating the structure to keep it safe for travelers. \nNYC DOT is proposing to rehabilitate BQE Central to address aging infrastructure\, improve safety and reliability\, and maintain this important connection for people and goods moving through Brooklyn and the region. \nThe project is preparing to enter the City Environmental Quality Review (CEQR) process. Through the CEQR process\, NYC DOT will study the project’s potential environmental effects and provide opportunities for public input. \n. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nVirtual Q&A Sessions\n\n\n\nVirtual Q&A #1\, Tuesday\, October 6\, 2026\, 7 p.m. to 8 p.m. Registration: bit.ly/bqecentral-oct6\nVirtual Q&A #2\, Thursday\, October 22\, 2026\, 11 a.m. to 12 p.m. Registration: bit.ly/bqecentral-oct22\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n. \n\n\n\n\n\n\nPop-Up Events\nNYC DOT will also host in-person pop-up events where members of the public can speak with project team members.

SUMMARY:BQE Central Events
DESCRIPTION:The Brooklyn-Queens Expressway (BQE) is an essential component of the region’s transportation network. It not only serves to connect Brooklyn with key access points in Manhattan\, Queens\, and on Staten Island\, but it also carries regional trucks and other traffic\, keeping this traffic off local Brooklyn streets. \nBQE Central is the approximately 1.5-mile City-owned section of the BQE (Interstate-278) between Atlantic Avenue and Sands Street in Brooklyn. This section includes multiple bridge structures – including the historic 0.4-mile-long “Triple Cantilever”. The BQE Central Project focuses on rehabilitating the structure to keep it safe for travelers. \nNYC DOT is proposing to rehabilitate BQE Central to address aging infrastructure\, improve safety and reliability\, and maintain this important connection for people and goods moving through Brooklyn and the region. \nThe project is preparing to enter the City Environmental Quality Review (CEQR) process. Through the CEQR process\, NYC DOT will study the project’s potential environmental effects and provide opportunities for public input. \n. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nVirtual Q&A Sessions\n\n\n\nVirtual Q&A #1\, Tuesday\, October 6\, 2026\, 7 p.m. to 8 p.m. Registration: bit.ly/bqecentral-oct6\nVirtual Q&A #2\, Thursday\, October 22\, 2026\, 11 a.m. to 12 p.m. Registration: bit.ly/bqecentral-oct22\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n. \n\n\n\n\n\n\nPop-Up Events\nNYC DOT will also host in-person pop-up events where members of the public can speak with project team members. These events will not feature a presentation\, so members of the public can attend at any time during the event. More events will be added soon. \n\nAtlantic Antic\, Sunday\, October 4\, 2026\, 12 p.m. to 6 p.m.\nMontague Street Open Street\, Sunday\, October 11\, 2026\, 12 p.m. to 3 p.m.\nBrooklyn Heights Library Pop-Up Office Hours\, Tuesday\, October 13\, 2026\, 4 p.m. to 7 p.m.\nDUMBO Archway Plaza\, Wednesday\, October 21\, 2026\, 11 a.m. to 2 p.m.\n\n. \n\n\nCEQR Public Scoping Meetings\nNYC DOT will hold public scoping meetings where you can learn more about the Draft Scope of Work and provide an official CEQR public comment. The same information will be presented at each meeting. You only need to attend one meeting\, but you are welcome to attend either.
