About the Authors Janette Sadik-Khan Janette was Commissioner of the New York City Department of Transportation from 2007–2013 under Mayor Michael Bloomberg, leading one of the most sweeping revitalizations of the city’s streets in a half-century. During her tenure, New York City added nearly 400 miles of bike lanes and the first parking-protected bike paths in North America. The department she led set in motion more than 60 plazas across the city, including the historic plazas that shut Broadway through Times Square, sparking economic recovery throughout the area. Seth Solomonow As press secretary for the NYC Department of Transportation under Commissioner Janette Sadik-Khan and Mayor Michael Bloomberg, Seth was the agency’s chief media strategist during a period of unprecedented change. He developed messaging and managed communications as dramatic streetscape transformations became headline and international news. These strategies helped inform the public debate and the successful implementation of some of New York City’s most ambitious initiatives, from the pedestrianization of Times Square to the building of nearly 400 miles of bike lanes, to the launch of Citi Bike, the nation’s largest bike share program.
