Summary: This bill would require the Department of Transportation (“DOT”) to ensure, where practicable, that pavement markings or temporary markings are installed on a street within 5 business days after the street is resurfaced. This bill would also require an annual report on March 1 of each year from DOT to the mayor and the speaker of the council on the number of streets where pavement markings were installed, the percentage of such streets where pavement markings or temporary markings were installed within 5 business days after resurfacing, and for any resurfacing where pavement markings or temporary markings were not installed within 5 business days, the reason for the delay. The requirement for the installation of markings within 5 business days will take effect at the same time that the resurfacing timeline in Proposed Int. No. 552-A takes effect, while the annual reporting requirement will take effect at the same time that the notice requirement in Proposed Int. No. 552-A takes effect.

A Local Law to amend the administrative code of the city of New York, in relation to installing pavement markings

 

 Be it enacted by the Council as follows:

 

Section 1. Subdivision d of section 19-101.6 of the administrative code of the city of New York, as added by a local law for the year 2025 amending the administrative code of the city of New York, relating to requiring street resurfacing coordination, as proposed in introduction number 552-A, is amended to read as follows:

d. [Reserved] 1. For any resurfacing of a street by the department, the department shall, where practicable, ensure that pavement markings or temporary markings are installed within 5 business days after the completion of such resurfacing.

2. No later than March 1 of each year, the department shall submit to the mayor and the speaker of the council and post on the department’s website a report that includes:

(a) The number of streets where, during the preceding year, the department installed pavement markings following the resurfacing of such street, disaggregated by borough;

(b) The percentage of such streets for which pavement markings or temporary markings were installed within 5 business days after the completion of such resurfacing; and

(c) For any such resurfacing completed during the preceding year where pavement markings or temporary markings were not installed within 5 business days after the completion of such resurfacing, the reason they were not installed within such time.

§ 2. Subdivision e of section 19-101.6 of the administrative code of the city of New York, as added by a local law for the year 2025 amending the administrative code of the city of New York, relating to requiring street resurfacing coordination, as proposed in introduction number 552-A, is amended by adding new definitions of “pavement markings” and “temporary markings” in alphabetical order to read as follows:

Pavement markings. The term “pavement markings” means lines, shapes, and symbols installed on the roadway to direct the movement of vehicles, pedestrians, and cyclists.

Temporary markings. The term “temporary markings” means lines, shapes, and symbols that show where the department intends to install pavement markings.

§ 3. This local law takes effect on the same date that a local law for the year 2025 amending the administrative code of the city of New York, relating to requiring street resurfacing coordination, as proposed in introduction number 552-A, takes effect, except that paragraph 2 of subdivision d of section 19-101.6 of the administrative code of the city of New York, as added by section one of this local law, takes effect on the same date that paragraph 3 of subdivision c of section 19-101.6 of such code, as added by section one of a local law for the year 2025 amending the administrative code of the city of New York, relating to requiring street resurfacing coordination, as proposed in introduction number 552-A, takes effect.
