Incorrect information being provided. Attached is the response after reporting the issue through the WOTS app,

Thank you for reporting an issue to the City of Jersey City. We will investigate.

John please verify that the location was entered properly on 9/21/19 on the Wots system. I have no record of 499 Washington Blvd being reported on that date.

That was the exact address. The attached image is from the very end of last month--8/31.

So the issue is from 1 month ago?

No- the issue is current. Cars are still parked throughout the day every day on bike lane with little to no enforcement of rules. When reporting the issue through Wots app, no action being taken. Several residents have reported this. Above is just an example.

Attached image from recent is the crux of the issue. Jersey City police car recently parked on bike lane, completely blocking the lane, for 15 minutes for a coffee break as I watched. There seems to be no interest in enforcing the bike lane rules.

The bike lanes need to be protected like the excellent implementation done on Montgomery Street between Greene St and Marin Blvd.

I only have this issue posted on 9/21/19 for this address I have nothing prior. Is it possible that you received this outcome from the JCPD?

Hi Christina. The proper way to address this is to install White delineators protecting the bike lanes so that cars are unable to park on the bike lane, just like has been done on the North bound Washington St. Otherwise, residents will keep reporting the issue.

On another thread (https://seeclickfix.com/issues/6520929), it was stated that the White delineators would be installed shortly after Labor Day at this address. Yet, no delineators are installed yet. No action being taken when reporting the issue through Wots app.

Bicyclists are riding in fear on this street and this is a very bad accident just waiting to happen.

This is still an ongoing problem due to lack of physical barriers separating bike lanes from vehicle travel lanes. WOTS reports are not being actioned because JCPD is treating this as a waste of their time and closing cases without any investigation. There are multiple requests for this same issue.

See: 6520929, 6539648, 6563997, 6512923

The last update on August 22nd was that barriers would be installed "after Labor Day". It has been 19 business days and almost a calendar month since Labor Day. When will the city install these barriers?

- Christina assigned this issue to AndrewV

Last night (09/27/2019 around 7:30pm) when i passed this area on my way home, I saw the police came for a car vs bike collision accident.

I hope the government can put more attention to this.

How long ago was this reports and this is the current condition? It just goes to show Jersey City only cares about making the big corporations happy. Not the residents.

Is this going to be addressed?

Well....we’re waiting....

Even after the repacking cars are still parking in the bike lanes. Is the city actually going to do anything about this?

Still plenty of parking. Good thing the city painted the bike lanes. Still no enforcement.

We will be installing white flexible delineators in the buffer along the bike lanes along Washington St which will prevent vehicles parking in the bike lanes. However, we do not have a timeline on the installation at the moment.

How about closing the issue when you actually complete the work?

In Progress.

All flexible white delineators are installed along the protected bike lanes on Washington St.

Thanks for fixing this request!
