NEW YORK (CBSNewYork/AP) — New York City is moving to lower bicycle speeds in Central Park in the wake of two fatal pedestrian-bike collisions this year.
The city has been posting signs in the park declaring a 20-mph speed limit for both vehicles and bikes, 1010 WINS’ Sonia Rincon reported. That’s a drop from 25 mph.
