  • 10th St & Manila Ave Jersey City, NJ, 07302, USA - Downtown

    Manila and 10th

    two parallel rows of cars coming from 12th Street are stopping (kind of) at the STOP
    one row is turning right and another’s is going standing - it is impossible to cross the street safely

    please make Manila one lane going into the stop sign

  • Griffith St & Palisade Ave Jersey City, NJ, 07307, USA - The Heights
    Dangerous intersection - could we implement a stop sign?
  • Hutton St & Summit Ave Jersey City, NJ, 07307, USA - The Heights
    Cars regularly blow through solid red lights at the intersection of Summit and Hutton. Case in point, I was almost was hit when a white sedan ignored the red light as I was crossing Summit. This happens at least once a day on my commute. Can you please do a study or put up a ticketing light to deter negligent drivers? Thank you.
  • 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.
  • 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.
  • 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.

    Franklin St & Hancock Ave Jersey City, NJ, 07307, USA - The Heights
    Multiple cars are parked in the crosswalk or in the no parking area of said address making it difficult to see crossing pedestrians. Can they possible install the traffic sticks so no one parks there to obstruct the view
  • 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.
  • Harborside Pl & Hudson St Jersey City, NJ, 07311, USA - The Waterfront

    The intersection at Harborside Pl and Hudson St has traffic lights that seem to be a legacy of the previous street design, when cars could cross the train track here. A 3-way stop would be better for both pedestrians and drivers.

    Cars often have to wait for a long time at the red light here, even with no one around, leading to:
    - lost time with no safety benefit
    - more exhaust, noise, light pollution
    - making drivers who drive here frequently more likely to turn illegally on the red light, leading to danger if they didn't see someone

    Pedestrians have a higher risk here because they don't have the right of way by default, like they do with stop signs. However, there's little car traffic, so people generally will not wait for the light and will cross against the light, leading to risk if there does happen to be a car coming with a green light.

    With the light sequence, (I think) the light can be green for cars to turn left onto Harborside at the same time as cars can go straight on Hudson. This is more likely to result in a head-on collision than just having a stop sign would be.

    In summary, the lights here make traversing this intersection more dangerous and slower for pedestrians and cars alike, and would be better replaced with a 3-way stop

  • 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.
  • 2 Journal Square Plaza Jersey City NJ 07306, United States - Journal Square
    This is a request for this parking garage for their entrance on cottage as well as the entrance on JFK. The main image is for the entrance on cottage. The curb cut extends from well past the first white car all the way to where the second white car is parked. There is no indication (paint or signs) cars parked right up to the driveway entrance and vehicles entering the lot on cottage drive at an extremely high rate of speed, turning onto the sidewalk without being able to see if pedestrians are using the sidewalk. On JFK the entrance and exit for the garage is incredibly wid and visually incorporated into the sidewalk. The exit behind pedestrians waiting to cross to the path station is in line with the red bumps for the crosswalk. I can not tell you how many close calls I have seen with drivers speeding to make the light here. I appreciate that it may not be feasible to ask the garage to narrow but as the city looks to update Cottage Ave something including paint and signs and maybe speed bumps on the immediate approach to the driveway would be helpful This may seem like a quiet dead end street but it is not because cars and pedestrians all use Herbert place as a cut through and it's very busy. Thank you.b.e
