Verrazzano-Narrows Bridge Staten Island-Bound Lower Level Will be Closed 

Mass transit is the easiest and most sustainable way to the five boro bike tour , motorists should expect delays and allow for extra travel time .

The Metropolitan Transportation Authority (MTA) is reminding customers that mass transit is the best way to get to the TD Five Boro Bike Tour on Sunday, May 7. Closures will be in effect for certain MTA bridges and tunnels to accommodate the tour. 

MTA Bridges and Tunnels 

Verrazzano-Narrows Bridge (VNB) 

The Staten Island bound lower level of the Verrazzano-Narrows Bridge will be closed from 12:01 a.m. until 7:00 p.m. on Sunday, May 7. Due to the closure of the Brooklyn-Queens Expressway (BQE)/Gowanus Expressway for this event, traffic will not be able to access the bridge via this approach from approximately 9:30 a.m. until 4:30 p.m.   

Note that the upper level of the bridge will remain open in both directions throughout the event with the Staten Island bound upper level only accessible from the Belt Parkway and 92 St entrance ramps. To hear information about all VNB Five-Boro Bike Tour closures, call (718) 556-8010.  

Other closings at the VNB include: 

  • One Brooklyn bound lane on the lower level from 8:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m. 
  • The Bay St exit from 7:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m. 
  • The 92 St entrance ramp to the Staten Island-bound lower level from approximately 12:01 a.m. to 7:00 p.m. 
  • The Belt Parkway entrance ramp to the Staten Island-bound lower level from approximately 12:01 a.m. to 7:00 p.m. 
  • The Lily Pond Av exit from 7:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m. 

Robert F. Kennedy Bridge (RFK) 

The Robert F. Kennedy Bridge’s exit ramp to the southbound FDR Drive will be closed from approximately 7:45 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. All southbound traffic must exit the RFK via the 2 Av-East 125 St ramp. 

Hugh L. Carey Tunnel (HLC) 

The approach from the Hugh L. Carey Tunnel to the westbound Gowanus/BQE will be closed from approximately 9:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. Due to this off-property closure, all traffic exiting the HLC Tunnel in Brooklyn will be diverted to Hamilton Av during this time, and the Trinity Place exit in Manhattan will also be closed from approximately 7:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. 

Motorists should expect delays and plan additional travel time or seek alternate routes. Closing times are subject to change by the New York City Police Department (NYPD) and event organizers. 

New York City Subway 

Customers who want to take their bike onto the subway need to tap their OMNY-enabled device or swipe their MetroCard while the station agent watches, rotate the turnstile, then enter through the station service gates once they are activated by the agent. For safety’s sake, customers should carry, not roll, bikes down stairs. Customers are prohibited from riding bicycles in stations or onboard trains. 

At the start or finish of the tour, customers with bicycles who wish to use the subway should use the following subway stations: Brooklyn Bridge-City Hall 4, 5 Bowling Green 4, 5 (Bowling Green Park entrance only), Chambers St 1, 2, 3, Chambers St J, World Trade Center E, Cortlandt St R, South Ferry 1, Broad St J.  

Riders are asked not use the following stations as they are not well-equipped to handle large volumes of bicycles: Fulton St 2, 3, 4, 5, J, Wall St 4, 5, Wall St 2, 3, Park Place 2, 3, Rector St 1, Rector St R, and Whitehall St R. 

New York City Buses  

Several bus routes throughout the city will be affected by street closures throughout the day. Customers should log on to  new.mta.info  and check the “Current Service Status” for updates. 

Paratransit 

Access-A-Ride (AAR) customers may experience delays due to street closures. 

Long Island Rail Road and Metro-North Railroad  

The LIRR and Metro-North are offering plenty of service to get cyclists to the start of the tour in time. Both railroads recommend that cyclists use a bungee cord to secure their bike while riding on the train. Customers should carefully read signage at their station of origin to make sure that parking is free and unrestricted.  

Tour participants should plan to arrive in time to ride or take the subway to Battery Park for the start of the tour event. The distance from Grand Central, Penn Station, or Atlantic Terminal Brooklyn, to Battery Park is 3 to 3.5 miles.

NEW YORK CITY — Cyclists, start spinning your wheels (in a good way) — the TD Five Boro Bike Tour is about to takeover New York City.

The annual tour returns Sunday along 40 miles of car-free streets across, as advertised, all five boroughs.

Registration is sold out, so apologies to cyclists who missed out.

nyc bike tour 2023 bridge closures

The TD Five Boro Bike Tour hosted by Bike NY is making a return this Sunday, May 7, where cyclists will take over 40-miles of commonly-used roadways for motor vehicles.

The city’s DOT warns that places such as the FDR Drive, BQE/Gowanus, the Ed Koch-Queensboro Bridge, and the Verrazzano-Narrows Bridge will be shut down for the event. They say that either mass transit or routes avoiding the Bike Tour will be your best bet to navigate the city. Motorists are strongly advised to take mass transit or to seek alternative routes farther from the tour route.

The cycling route goes from Lower to Upper Manhattan before heading into the Bronx. It returns to Manhattan along the East Side before heading into Queens and Brooklyn. The tour finishes in Staten Island.

Here’s what we know about road closures:

Verrazzano-Narrows Bridge

  • There will be no lower level access into Staten Island from 12:01 a.m. to 7 p.m. Sunday. No access from the Brooklyn Queens Expressway to the Verrazzano from 9:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., either.

The upper level of the bridge will remain open in both directions throughout the entirety of the event, though it will only be accessible in the Staten Island-bound direction from the Belt Parkway and 92 St entrance ramps.

Robert F. Kennedy Bridge (a.k.a. Triborough Bridge)

  • The exit ramp headed for FDR Drive to the south will be closed from 7:45 a.m. to 1 p.m. Drivers headed south must exit RFK/Triborough at 2 Avenue-East 125 Street.

NYC 5 Boro Bike Tour 2023: What cyclists need to know about riding the Staten Island Ferry

  • Updated: May. 03, 2023, 1:01 p.m.
  • | Published: May. 03, 2023, 7:27 a.m.

Five Boro Bike Tour - Ferry

Thousands of cyclists will be riding the Staten Island Ferry on Sunday, May 7, to get to and from the Five Boro Bike Tour, which kicks off in Lower Manhattan and ends in St. George. (Staten Island Advance) Staff-Shot

STATEN ISLAND, N.Y. -- One of the busiest days of the year for the Staten Island Ferry is right around the corner.

With more than 30,000 cyclists gearing up for this year’s TD Five Boro Bike Tour, the Staten Island Ferry will be charged with transporting thousands to and from the annual event.

The 40-mile tour, set for Sunday, May 7, spans the city’s five boroughs, beginning in Lower Manhattan and traveling north into the Bronx, before heading to Queens, Brooklyn and, ultimately, crossing the Verrazzano-Narrows Bridge and concluding in St. George near the Staten Island Ferry.

With 32,000 participants expected in this year’s event, the Staten Island Ferry is in for a busy day, serving as the quickest, most convenient way for Staten Islanders to reach the starting line and for non-borough residents to return to other parts of the city after they’ve completed the course.

On the day of the event, the Staten Island Ferry will provide 20-minute service from 7 a.m. to 10 a.m., 15-minute service from 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. and regularly-scheduled 30-minute service at all other times.

All cyclists must board the boat on the lower level at both the Whitehall Terminal in Manhattan and the St. George Terminal, located at 1 Bay St. on Staten Island.

Riders must dismount and walk their bicycle while in the waiting area and when boarding and departing the boat. Riding on and off the boat is prohibited.

All bicycles must be stored in the designated storage area on the lower level of each vessel.

Riders may be subject to security screenings at the terminal.

The Staten Island Ferry is free of charge for all passengers and bicycles.

The Department of Transportation, the agency that operates the Staten Island Ferry, is not responsible for any stolen or damage bicycles.
