BFJ Planning was hired by the City of Rye, New York to study traffic and safety conditions along the southern segment of the Boston Post Road (NY Route 1) from the Village of Mamaroneck border to Old Post Road, a 1.5 mile segment. The Boston Post Road, a major arterial connecting several villages and towns had 4 sub-standard lanes and relatively high speeds and crash rates. BFJ proposed to convert the existing four narrow lanes without shoulder to a two-lane highway with 7-foot striped median (to be landscaped in the future) and 4-foot shoulders on each side. Protected turn lanes were added at critical intersections. This plan was implemented and received with great success by the residents.
