Traffic PLUS

At Pavonia & Homestead there is a Rectangular Rapid-Flashing Beacon (RRFB) installation that pedestrians can actuate when they want to cross Pavonia Ave.
There are two signals, one at each end of the crosswalk, which have yellow LED lights to warn oncoming vehicles. A button is mounted on each pole below the beacons and signs.
Both sides normally flash when either button is pressed.
PSE&G installed a new wood pole to reroute high voltage wires away from the construction site at 616 Pavonia.
The pole blocks the view of the RRFB on the south side of the crosswalk from eastbound drivers.
The RRFB should be moved east, to the other side of the crosswalk, where it will be more visible to oncoming eastbound drivers.

The intersection of Gardner and Summit continues to be a safety issue. There was just another fender bender today. People coming out of Gardner cannot clearly see traffic coming from the north. Something needs to be improved immediately.

Crash at this intersection this morning We need a stop sign and curb bump outs at this intersection It is difficult and dangerous to cross Congress St as both a pedestrian and driver The crosswalks are frequently blocked, esp in the morning during school drop off (I get the need for a quick drop off in the morning but it comes at the expense of many others safety This mornings crash looked like it involved kids going to school)

We are a school and are a heavy traffic area due to Newport mall, another school, and the Holland tunnel. Cars are constantly flying down the street almost hitting students. We currently do not have any bike lane, school zone signal, or slow down sign. We are concerned for our student's and community safety and would like help in solving this issue.

post has been destroyed by drivers, please replace

The stretch from Webster to Central on Congress St has no stop signs As a result, many drivers speed up Congress St (past a day care, and past crossings that access two schools and a major park) We need to control traffic on Congress St and make it safer for residents There are also crashes at these intersections frequently because it's difficult to see oncoming traffic if you need to cross Cambridge, Sherman or Hancock

Without engineered solutions, pedestrians will be at risk. Our crosswalks are nonexistent.

The Columbus Triangle at Monmouth and Newark Ave should be significantly extended. The road here is so wide that cars can stop illegally along it without impeding traffic. Add extensions to shorten the crosswalk, narrow the street, and slow traffic.

Please add a speed bump on Franklin between Webster and Sherman Avenue. As the stop sign there is not being obeyed, and that is a block away from an elementary school

Can the city investigate the safety conditions on Herbert place for pedestrians. The sidewalks are VERY narrow. To the point where two people can not pass each other and need to step into the street. This matter is made even more concerning as it is a very very common place for cars to park on the sidewalk. This is a constant every day occurrence. and hundreds of people use this route to get the the JSQ bus terminal and path station everyday. The parking lot often encroaches on the right of way.

Cars routinely speed through this section and do not stop to let pedestrians cross at cross walk. Have seen numerous people almost struck by cars going to the light rail etc in the area. Perhaps a stop sign would help.
