Is there a status update from PSEG regarding getting brighter lights and more poles installed on this street? It's a continued safety issue as the street is very dark at night and the abandoned building had a lot of activity

something got run over I think? a street light maybe.

The area of Baldwin Ave between Court House Place and Washburn Street (325 Baldwin Ave to 339 Baldwin Ave) is extremely dark at night and needs additional lights installed to make the area safe and properly illuminated.

The SeeClickFix menu does not allow reporting ANY Lighting concern.

This is the message you get:

"Organization does not accept requests for this category. Please see any additional details below."

Then listed below is the web address for the PSE&G Streetlight Outages web page. No contact information for Jersey City is offered.

There is NO WAY to alert Jersey City of lighting problems at pedestrian walkways around construction sites, streetlights that have been removed, or streetlights that are needed.

In December, after SeeClickFix stopped accepting streetlighting issues, I reported a lighting problem in the pedestrian walkway next to the 10 Journal Square construction site as a Sidewalk Defect:

This landed in the RRC and went nowhere for 6 weeks until Althea acknowledged it

Here are three more examples:

The new block of Central Ave. between Hoboken and Newark has NO street lighting. Three new streetlights were installed 3 years ago. As a result of the construction at 626 Newark, PSE&G removed two poles and the 3rd is not lit at night.

Pole #69392 at 620 Pavonia Ave. used to have a streetlight that illuminated the mid-block pedestrian crossing. It was evidently removed as part of the construction in the area and/or PSE&G work.

Pole # 62389 at 332 Baldwin Ave. near Washburn St. needs a new streetlight to be installed.. The only other light is at the other end of the block near Court House Pl.

HOW CAN ISSUES LIKE THESE BE REPORTED ?

SeeClickFix needs to modify the menu for lighting to add these options.

The decorative globe streetlight at the east end of 57 Sip Ave. is not lit at night.

Given the enormous amount of money that was spent on the Newark Pedestrian Plaza, is there any way to make it look a little less depressing and poorly managed? It is bad enough that we have holiday lights adorning dead trees--do all the overhead string lights hanging from the expensive poles that were installed only to support these lights all need to be burned out and malfunctioning? Does anyone oversee the maintenance of the pedestrian plaza? Please fix these lights or remove them. And maybe remove the dead trees and bushes that are a fire hazard? Can't Jersey City do just a little better?

This decorative globe streetlight near the entrance to CapitolOne bank is not lit at night.

There are TWO streetlight fixtures on this pole.

The one on the long arm doesn't light at night.

The one mounted at the pole cycles on and off at night.
