Pedestrian Safety Study RequestReconocido97 Monitor St Jersey City, NJ, 07304, USA - Bergen-Lafayette
The intersection of Pine and Johnston is extremely dangerous: limited sight distance, cars racing to making lights, excessive traffic from the bridge closing, poor crossing marking. This intersection would benefit greatly from simple changes like crossing lights to warn drivers of crossing, better markings, and a speed bump on Pine. However in the long-term, JC should consider a slow streets design the changes the street from a straight un-obstructed street to a street with intentional obstructions to slow traffic at intersections (e.g., circular planter in the middle of the intersection).
As this neighborhood grows, so will pedestrian traffic and JC needs be proactive about pedestrian safety.
This is also a major bike route for local residents, and desperately needs protected bike lanes.

Ask a QuestionReconocido231 Pacific Ave Jersey City, NJ, 07304, USA - Bergen-LafayetteCan the people of Pacific Avenue get a stop sign at Bramhall to stop the speeding traffic and dangerous cars? There have been numerous accidents including several hit and runs because of speed and out-of-control vehicles. The city could make a fortune if they enforced the speed limit. We've asked for a speed bump but were told no because emergency vehicle use.

Pedestrian Safety Study RequestReconocido13 Ravine Ave Jersey City, NJ 07307, USA - The HeightsI believe that this intersection could benefit from a roundabout such as the ones being trialed this week on St Pauls Ave in Journal Square. Drivers on New York Ave from either direction turning left often do so at the same time and go around each other in such a way that a roundabout would reinforce and make this practice safer. The additional signage and traffic calming effects would be a welcome addition for pedestrians and cyclists as well.

Streets: StreetlightsReconocido1 Greene St. Jersey City, NJ - The WaterfrontGreene St., south of Essex, needs more street lights. Especially with the park/playground and people walking by after exiting the boardwalk, we desperately needs more light there before someone gets hurt. Thank you!

Pedestrian Safety Study RequestReconocidoMarin Blvd & Mercer St Jersey City, NJ, 07302, USA - DowntownIn response to a recently closed item for this crosswalk - the city is no longer installing flexible "stop for pedestrian" signs in the road, but the current signs that are up on the sidewalk are not enough to ensure that drivers are stopping for pedestrians in this crosswalk. Traffic frequently stops inside the crosswalk when backed up, leaving pedestrians vulnerable to walking into the street where it is not clear to drivers in different lanes to stop for them.

Pedestrian Safety Study RequestReconocido93 Grand St Jersey City, NJ, 07302, USA - The WaterfrontOn multiple weekday evenings around 5p, my son (elementary school age) and I have been crossing with the walk sign at Grand and Washington and have needed to stop suddenly for vehicles turning from Washington onto Grand. Vehicles have ignored pedestrians in the cross-walk, have been driving fast, and caused a really dangerous situation. A crossing guard later in the evening at this intersection would help a lot. Particularly in the winter when it is dark around 5p and since there are children walking home at that time.

Traffic/Pedestrian Safety Study RequestsReconocido38 Skillman Ave Jersey City 07306, United States - Journal SquareThis is the most dangerous intersection for Pedestrians especially when the light at JFK and St Paul’s is green. Cars speed up St Paul’s without any regard for pedestrians ignoring the pedestrian crossing and blinking signs. There needs to be a speed bump or a stop sign here before someone gets run over.
