Two-Way Traffic Restored to Flushing!
Almost five and a half years after construction began on Flushing Avenue, normal traffic patterns were restored yesterday. At some point in during the afternoon, eastbound traffic resumed in front of the Admirals Row and flyers announcing the return of two-way traffic were put on the windshields of cars that were left stranded facing the wrong way by their unsuspecting owners. Now how about a bike lane while we wait for the Greenway?

Unfortunately 2-way traffic has only been restored down by the Navy Yard.
Flushing is still 1-way near Spencer and Walworth where there's giant pipes, etc, waiting to be put into the ground.
It's ugly and messy and hasn't been touched in at least a year or two. I have no idea what the hold up is.

Why do simple low-tech projects like this take so long in NYC? Kent Avenue took a similarly long time. Is it corruption? unions gone crazy?
