VZV Street Improvement Projects: NYC Intersection Safety Treatments from 2009

Safety-oriented engineering improvements for New York City streets, focusing on both corridors and intersections. The data includes operational projects from 2009 to the present day, using treatments like signals, markings, and concrete to organize traffic and improve safety for pedestrians and cyclists. The dataset is provided by the City of New York and was last updated in March 2026.

Use Cases

• Analyze the spatial distribution of safety treatments based on the geospatial map data.
• Model the impact of multi-treatment projects (signals, markings, concrete) on traffic organization and travel times.
• Evaluate pedestrian and bicycle safety improvements based on the described project goals.
• Track the timeline of operational, non-capital projects based on the 2009 to present date range.

Strengths

• Project data spans from 2009 to the present day, providing a multi-year view.
• Focuses on safety-oriented engineering with multiple treatment types, as described.
• Linked to official DOT project information for further context.

Limitations

• Row count and dataset size are unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Description metadata is limited; actual data quality requires manual inspection after download.
