dec 3 2023 A neglected Bronx subway underpass has turned into a hellish open-air drug market that’s making locals afraid to even walk down the street — and has at least one local pol seeing red.
The Kingsbridge D-train underpass has been plagued by rampant drug use since the end of the pandemic, with zombie-like addicts shooting up in public — and no one is doing anything about it, according to residents and City Councilman Oswald Feliz (D-Bronx).
“The illicit drug selling and use, as well as other quality of life issues, has made the underpass unwelcoming and in some days unwalkable,” Feliz wrote in a scathing letter to the city Department of Transportation last month.
The Post found several spent needles in the area during a recent visit, with vagrants slipping under the overpass to buy or use drugs amid the trash-strewn walkway.
“It’s not safe,” mom Draya Michelle said as she took her 2-year-old daughter home nearby on Friday.
