  • Communipaw Ave & Mallory Ave Jersey City, NJ, 07304, USA - Lincoln Park
    The corner traffic light should have a left turn arrow first for people turning onto Mallory. The only way to get through a traffic light there when busy is to go through a red light.
  • Bramhall Ave & Halladay St Jersey City, NJ, 07304, USA - Bergen-Lafayette
    Bramhall turned to a 1 Way Street due to excessive traffic and narrow street
  • 18th St & Grove St Jersey City, NJ, 07310, USA - Downtown
    This intersection is regularly blocked by congestion (overflow from the poor flow of traffic through the intersection of Newark and Grove Street that is technically hoboken) causing pedestrian safety issues due to poor visibility. Can a traffic study help? Painting lines to “not block the box”? Other?
  • Pershing Plz Jersey City, NJ, 07306, USA - The Heights
    The street between the park and reservoir (howie fink way) should be closed to cars. It is one way, next to the playground and cars are very close to the playing children, often speeding. Please close this road to cars or at least install speed bumps.
  • Hutton St & Sherman Ave Jersey City, NJ, 07307, USA - The Heights
    This is the corner of a school and car continue to run the stop sign, or back up into a closed street (closed on the side of Franklin because of the school) . I have personally almost been hit with my child 4 times this year. This morning the woman didnt even stop we ran out of the way.
    This is insane and has only become more of the norm here.
  • Bleecker St & John F Kennedy Blvd Jersey City, NJ, 07307, USA - The Heights

    Bleecker St (Western Slope-Jersey City Heights)
    Intersections:Nelson Ave,Columbia Ave,Liberty Ave,and Terrace Ave

    Since Bleecker St doesn't qualify for all way stop signs.

  • 2nd St & Brunswick St Jersey City, NJ, 07302, USA - Downtown
    Cars consistently run this stop sign in both directions, it's incredibly dangerous in the morning for pedestrians.
  • Saint Pauls Ave & Skillman Ave Jersey City, NJ, 07306, USA - Journal Square
    it is impossible to cross here in the morning. No one stops at the RFP as cars and large trucks race through the intersection to get to the light. There are also a ton of cars turning onto and off of Skillman due to the massive parking garage for the building on JFK, the parking lot for the school, and the large surface lot at the dead end of skillman. The city needs to install a four way stop here like they did at liberty.
  • Belmont Ave & Monticello Ave Jersey City, NJ, 07304, USA - McGinley Square
    The traffic light at Belmont and Monticello needs to a sign that says “No turn on red during school hours (8-9am, 2-3pm).” Last week in the morning, the crossing guard was crossing a group of kids and someone turned into the crosswalk while the kids and crossing guard were in the middle of the street. This is not uncommon and it’s only a matter of time before someone gets hit by a car. Also requesting traffic enforcement for the morning hours for the first few weeks after the sign is installed.
  • Astor Pl & Crescent Ave Jersey City, NJ, 07304, USA - McGinley Square
    A constituent called to report that this intersection has become a danger zone for pedestrians as cars speed through the street, even with speed humps already placed.
  • 1st St & Monmouth St Jersey City, NJ, 07302, USA - Downtown
    Need a stop sign or stop light installed at this intersection urgently. It has been 3 years without a solution. Escalation is now warranted. This is a dangerous intersection, no stop sign or stop light for pedestrians. Cars speed through it. Many residents have had close calls.
  • 62 Hutton St Jersey City, New Jersey, 07307 - The Heights

    Police and public do not obey stop signs. We are two blocks away from the police department and police do not observe stop signs. They do not enforce people running stop signs, and when approached about this issue, make excuses that “the stop signs are new”.

    This is not an isolated issue. This is seemingly accepted norm for this neighborhood and Jersey City in general.
    Stand on any street corner in this block for fifteen minutes, and it becomes apparent.

    Please, we need a pedestrian safety study and/or consequences for public drivers and for police not enforcing driving laws and exacerbating the issue by ignoring street signs themselves.

    This is for Jersey City Heights in general, but Griffith to Franklin/Sherman to Central Avenue, specifically.
