Traffic PLUS

Request for bollards to separate the road from the bike lane/sidewalk at Washington Blvd in front of Chipotle.

There is a constant presence of vehicles stopped or parked in the crosswalk/bike lane here. This is dangerous as it forces bikes into the street or the sidewalk, reduces visibility of pedestrians for cars, and increases points of conflict for cars, pedestrians, and bikes.

There should be a physical barrier to prevent these cars from parking here while still allowing pedestrians through, since there doesn't seem to be any enforcement of parking rules here.

Intersection of Columbus and Brunswick. Crossing Columbus. When traffic light turns green don’t walk sign does not change to walk.

This has been fixed 2x before. Ongoing problem.

I’m writing as a pedestrian concerned about the safety at the intersection of Palisade Avenue and Bowers Street in Jersey City.

This morning, I experienced a close call where a car turning on green nearly hit me while I was crossing legally with the “Walk” signal.

I’ve observed that this intersection does not currently have a Leading Pedestrian Interval (LPI), and cars often turn without yielding to pedestrians.

I respectfully request that the city consider adding an LPI phase to improve safety at this crossing.

Thank you for your attention and efforts to make Jersey City safer for all road users.

Best regards,
Concerned resident
