Zohran Mamdani ditches campaign pledge on NYC intersections in latest flip-flop

Mayor Zohran Mamdani ditched one of his sound-bite campaign pledges as his administration apparently dealt with the reality of implementing a pro-pedestrian parking policy — leaving transit advocates in the crosshairs. Department of Transportation Mike Flynn admitted at a Tuesday City Council meeting that the administration was not following a “universal daylighting” approach at the Big Apple’s 40,000 intersections — in direct contradiction to the democratic socialist’s campaign promises. “Daylighting” is a pro-pedestrian initiative that bans parking near crosswalks, but Flynn said the city would look at intersections on a case-by-case basis.
