Did you miss our latest Three Village Civic Association meeting? 🚶‍♀️🚲

We presented the results of our Community Walkability & Pedestrian Safety Survey—and the takeaway is clear: while local neighborhood streets feel fine, over 60% of residents feel unsafe walking or biking between neighborhoods, with Route 25A and cut-through routes like Barker Drive flagged as top concerns.

Here is how you can stay involved:

Pedestrian & Bike Safety Survey: Presentation and results of the Three Village survey presented by 3VCA Board Member, Michael Ehrlich

08/10/2026

Initial results of the Three Village Civic Assoociation - Pedestrian and Bicycle Safety Survey.

This graph compares how safe respondents feel when walking or biking in their own neighborhood (green values) vs walking or biking between neighborhoods (such as shopping areas, schools, train station, etc).

1. The gap is town-wide. Across all 283 respondents, people rate safety within their own neighborhood 3.18 out of 5, but only 2.08 travelling between neighborhoods — a drop of 1.10 points. None of the three main areas scores above 2.16 on getting between places.

2. South Setauket feels safest at home and least safe leaving it. Its residents give their own streets 3.74 out of 5 — the highest score of any area — yet rate travel between neighborhoods just 1.88, the lowest of the three main areas. That 1.85-point gap is nearly double Setauket/East Setauket's 0.97 or Stony Brook's 1.02.

3. Setauket/East Setauket, the largest group at 130 responses, rates its own streets lowest of the three main areas at 3.03 out of 5. For those residents the problem starts at their front door, not just at the hamlet line.

4. Stony Brook (91 responses) tracks the town average on both measures — 3.19 within, 2.16 between. It posts the best between-neighborhood score of the three main areas, and it is still barely above 2 out of 5.

5. The fix is connection, not local streets. Residents already rate their own neighborhoods close to the midpoint; what collapses the score is the trip to shops, schools, parks and the train — which is exactly what 80% of respondents said they want explored through a continuous bike/pedestrian route.

Talking points summarized by Claude.

Additional survey results will be posted over the next 2 weeks.
