Wrong street signs Acknowledged

90 Clarendon St New Haven, CT - Annex

I don't know when the Clarendon St. signs were changed but now they read as "Clarendon Rd." This is causing paperwork issues, delivery confusion and other problems. Please change the signs back to Clarendon St.

  I am just curious. How long does a request for a sign change take? I am only asking because I dont want to bug the sign division every month if the waiting period or work backlog is 3-6 months.

Left Turn Signal Needed Archived

Main Street Anx New Haven, CT 06512, USA - Annex

I was wondering if anyone else out there has the same experience as I do when coming off exit 50 and trying to take a left turn onto Townsed Ave. at the intersection of Main. Since there is a left turn signal for Woodward Ave, is it possible for another one at the Main & Townsend intersection?

  The original issue was the length of time it takes for the light to turn green- doesn't matter if it's morning, noon or night! It wasn't for a left turn signal at Townsend and Main. It takes FOREVER to change to green coming down Townsend Ave. towards Main St. It is FASTER to go up Frost St., left down Beacon to Main St. then it is to wait for the light to turn green! Just because no one else commented here doesn't mean they don't care. How many people even know about this site. It wouldn't hurt if the state sent someone down to check it out. Many times I see the state at the control box on the exit ramp coming off Exit 50 and wanted to stop to complain to them, but there is NOWHERE to stop!

Milton St. After Dark Archived

1 75 Milton St New Haven, CT 06513, USA - Annex

With the warm weather finally here, Milton St. has once again become a "hot spot" for after dark activities. My wife and I have caught numerous cars parked on the side of the street with young people having sex, smoking dope or some other recreational drugs, littering. We've found "chopped' up cars in the woods. Last summer my wife and I were assaulted confronting a group of a young people urinating in the soccer field across from our house. My neighbor just recently caught 4 latino soccer players urinating at the dead end near his house. There are used condoms in the street and little Ziplock bags scattered all over the road which leads me to believe that there is drug use going on. When I informed the police, they stated that they are aware of Milton St. being a problem area. If this is the case, is it too much of an issue to have a patrol car make a random drive down Milton St. at random hours of the night? I work late and when I return home, I've seen numerous cars parked on the side of the street with people in them doing God knows what. The park is technically closed after 8PM according to the signs posted on the streets. After last summer's ordeal of my wife and I being sucker punched in the face by 2 scumbags, I would like to think that a simple random nightly drive by would be the easiest thing that someone can do to help the residents out and ensure a feeling of safety. Summer is here and schools will be out soon. More kids out after dark equals more problems for area residents/home owners.

Proposal for bike route: Tomlinson Bridge Open

Tomlinson Bridge New Haven, CT - Annex

Forbes Ave is already used by dozens of bicycle commuters as their primary route between downtown and Annex+East Shore despite the road being completely inhospitable to bicycling. Imagine how much more convenient bicycling would be for thousands of Annex and East Shore residents if Forbes Ave were reduced to one lane in each direction with a center turn-out lane and bike lanes on either side. I hear that the City is tentatively supportive and it is simply a matter of getting DOT onboard. Now that a new administration is coming to Hartford, this sounds significantly more plausible. If you would like to see bike lanes on Forbes Ave, vote for this issue!

  How about you stay on the side walk and a narrow bike lane and leave the lanes for the thousands of commuters? I seriously doubt there's "thousands" of bicycle commuters waiting to pedal over the Tomlinson. Biking is fine, but you cyclists have to understand cars are here to stay and New haven isn't going to turn into a bicycling mecca.

  Turk, I'm really sorry to hear of your crash. I'm not sure it will be any consolation, but I did verify today that flange fillers have been installed in the rail grooves on both the east and westbound crossings. This is a huge advance for safety at the tracks! Kudos to the DOT, the City of New Haven, and the P&W Railroad for getting the flange fillers installed.
  
  I tried pressing on the flange fillers with my fingers, and they were springy and rubbery to the touch. They will easily compress under a railroad locomotive but remain firm under a bicycle. The only concern is that their material properties could change during winter when the temperature drops below freezing, causing derailments. Let's hope for the best on this.

  Turk,
  
  Sorry to hear about your accident and I hope you are ok. Did you report it? I hope so. I know of and have read of people getting into accidents at this location but don't actually report it to the athorities. Each accident reported is one more piece of proof that gets added to city data. Not reporting the issue is just as bad if not worse than actually getting into an accident, whether or not someone else was involved because it is lost information that cannot be used to make a case.

  I would like to look into this, but the BZA does not keep publicly available minutes of it's decisions, making it impossible. I've sent an e-mail to city staff asking the following:
  Did the commissioners discuss the proposal?
  Did they provide a rationale for approval?
  How many people were for/against in the audience?
  Did City Plan make a recommendation?
  If so, did the BZA vote to follow the recommendation?
  If not, did they explain what information they heard at the hearing made them vote against the recommendation?
  
  I would strongly urge anyone who cares about transparency and fairness and zoning issues to push and find out why BZA does not keep public minutes on the internet.

No Harbor Station Expansion without Air Quality Improvement: Petition for Fai... Archived

1 Waterfront Street New Haven, CT - Annex

Air quality in the city of New Haven is deplorable and has a severe impact on the health and quality of life of our residents. Despite the fact that New Haven already hosts more than its fair share of air polluting facilities, PSEG, the utility company who owns and operates Harbor Station, is seeking to build three new units as peaking power plants to be used when energy demand exceeds base-load supply. These plants will add pollution to our air in days when air quality is already at its worst: long hot sunny days when demand is high due to air conditioning and other uses. However, a net reduction in polluting emissions can be achieved from the site: the existing Harbor Station plant (Unit 1) runs primarily on oil. The three proposed, more modern, gas-fueled turbines are state-of-the art and run much more cleanly and efficiently than Unit 1. In addition, because of a new environmental justice law, the company has been talking to the city about a community benefits agreement that would address the true impact of their activities on our community. Please sign the petition to demand that Public Service Enterprise Group (PSEG) commit to reduce polluting emissions from the totality of their Harbor Station operations and thus help improve the quality of the air in New Haven, CT.

Extremely Dangerous merge lane onto the Q-Bridge! Archived

Governor John Davis Lodge Turnpike New Haven, CT 06512, USA - Annex

Is the DOT waiting for someone to get killed before they do something about the mixture of oncoming high speed traffic approaching low speed traffic entering the highway while merging in the same lane? Enough is enough. Either re-open the old entrance ramp, which was 100 times safer, or put up signs to warn numerous out of state drivers, who are clueless about the merge, that the same lane they are driving in is going to be utilized by traffic entering the highway from the ramp. All of the changes have made the entire area completely unmanageable and dangerous, while leaving traffic flow at a standstill.

The green light on Rt. 1, Forbes Avenue, at the intersection of Wheeler street is only on for 15 seconds, causing backups every morning and evening rush hour.

PUBLIC WORKS STREET-SWEEPING SCAM. Open

49 Hillside Ave. New Haven, CT - Annex

I left my home at 6am to go to work. Sometime between 6am and 8am the City of New Haven posted 'Street-Sweeping' signs and towed my other car. Is the Operations Director getting pay off from the towing companies?

  I as at an Auto Dismantling yard a week ago. Some call it a junkyard,some say there's nothing but a bunch of @#*^ in there. But the load of crushed cars on the semi trailer was pathetic,only a few unrecognizable flattened little cars,not like i recall 20 years ago with the bigger autos giving it some weight.One worker,possibly owner was pretty incensed about the lack of cars to be crushed and "just nobody is junking them". I remember tow yards was another way for the junkyards to obtain these autos
  AFTER a tow yard has a car/truck/suv for 30 days they own it. Towed by them for a variety of reasons,pulled over by the police for the usual,Misuse of plates,no insurance,no registration,police finding stolen cars that the insurance company totals due to being stripped by the perpetrators,abandoned autos - and the tow yard gets cars from street sweeping,sometimes students actually let them keep it.

  I see they sent this to the Public Works Dept. Cowards. I called and left a message for one.Operations manager. Typical civil servant collecting his pay for doing nothing at the expense of tax payers. Never had the courtesy to return my call.

  We don't rate that. Only East Rock. Apparently, we pay less taxes. Succession now!

  My sons car wasalso towed. The posted signs say sweeping from April to November, he was towed on December 14TH!! Who sweeps street in December when they are putting down sand for ice and snow! It's a scam for sure and costly

Extremely dangerous on-ramp to the Q Bridge Open

219-519 Waterfront St New Haven, CT 06512, USA - Annex

Is the DOT waiting for someone to get killed before they do something about the mixture of oncoming high speed traffic approaching low speed traffic entering the highway while merging in the same lane? Enough is enough. Either re-open the old entrance ramp, which was 100 times safer, or put up signs to warn numerous out of state drivers, who are clueless about the merge, that the same lane they are driving in is going to be utilized by traffic entering the highway from the ramp. All of the changes have made the entire area completely unmanageable and dangerous, while leaving traffic flow at a standstill.

  DOT could slow down the highway speeds by painting narrower travel lanes, posting a 45 MPH limit, and/or utilizing speed cameras. Given that fatal crashes are mostly caused by speeding, these measures would help prevent future deaths more than just having a few more signs would.

  if people are speeding, what make you think they would slow down for a slower speed limit sign? maybe you should consider an alternate route. There is road construction going on, did you happen to notice that? It will be going on for at least the next 3-5 years.

Speeding/Big old trees Open

915-1025 Townsend Avenue New Haven, CT 06512, USA - Annex

Too many accidents have occurred in this area where the posted sign is 30 miles. When cars are coming from the lighthouse are they don't realize that is like a steep and since they are speeding the just can't see the cars because of the steep and there it goes the accident. Many people have come down to see a tree that had been hit many times.I even saw the lady that lives right in front picking up after the accident and the next day sweeping what was left out by the towing co.I believe there are two issues here: speeding and some of the old trees have to be replaced. They are blocking the visibility and some big accident may occurred of not taking care of it.I believe these are state trees and can not be touch by the city. So please Mr. Barnes do something about it.

  Don't cut down the trees, it is not their fault! Get rid of idiot drivers, or cars in general.

  I guess is not worth reporting any more issues. The last I saw was that right in front of 985 there is a tree that have been hit many times(according to the owner of the house at 985) She showed me a part of a car that hitted her house during the last accident and she also placed two reflectors on the tree to see if accidents can be avoided.

No Trucks Thru Open

87-207 Burwell St New Haven, CT 06513, USA - Annex

Need new sign to replace small, fading sign of No Thru Trucks on this street. 18 wheelers and dump trucks constantly use to get to Quinnipiac. There are no trucks allowed down this street and no police to enforce. Major street repairs needed due to the trucks speeding and hitting pot holes.

Extremely dangerous railroad crossing for cyclists Open

229 Waterfront St New Haven, CT 06512 - Annex

Be very careful crossing the tracks on your bike. Go slow and cross perpendicular to the rails. Signage is desperately needed. See http://groups.yahoo.com/group/elmcitycycling/message/8023
