Being investigated.

Vehicle in question no longer at location.

What? The cars that were reported there two days ago aren’t there? Great work JCPD. I guess since there are different cars parked there right now that you don’t need to enforce the no parking in the bike lane. Amazing work Jersey City!!!

Vehicle in question no longer at location.

This is a joke. Jersey City does zero enforcement of cars parking in the bike lanes. You obviously don’t care about safety. Just because the one car isn’t there doesn’t absolve you of of not doing your job to keep others from parking there. Stop being lazy.

Will enforce daily.

Will Enforce Daily.

How about we close these after we see this issue taken care of.

We periodically investigate area and as parking officer arrives vehicles do move.

Why not install a delineator at the entrances to each bike lane segment? One that it would be easy for bikes to get around, but not wide enough for cars to drive through. They would have to drive over it. I think that might help to solve this problem.

Periodically monitored and summons issued

Delineators it's something to consider. Not my department. As far as parking issued wil continue to monitor and summons.

Really? That’s great!! You know traffic summons are public record in Jersey City and are searchable. I’m guess you won’t mind if I verify that what you say is true. Right?

Also, even though it’s not your department, maybe you can call the people in that department and see what they can do. You all work for the city.

Why not give it a try!!!

Jersey City, NJ assigned this issue to Traffic – Jennifer C

Monitored.

Summons issued.

Continues monitored

Monitored, but zero enforcement. Jersey City doesn’t seem to care about public safety.

The Traffic Division will look into installing delineators at the entrances to the bike lanes.

Traffic will look into installing deleanators.

Close the issue when the problem is solved. There is zero enforcement.

Numerous summons issued.

You know, we can just keeping opening and closing this issue. You claim there’s enforcement, but the proof is in the pudding. You can go by there pretty much anytime during the day and evening and there are cars parked in the lanes. So, that just tells us that the drivers know the city will not do anything about it. It’s truly sad that the city simply does not care about the public’s safety when it comes to this issue. I ride my bike through here almost every day and I have to go out into the traffic lanes in order to get around. Since the bikes lanes were put in, the traffic lanes are more narrow and there is zero room for error and makes this area even more dangerous. So, instead of just closing this issue again with some statement saying your “monitoring” the area, why not actually start enforcing this before someone gets hurt or killed because of these illegally parked vehicles?

The Traffic Division acknowledged this request. This assignment was unintentionally closed.

This issue was recategorized from Traffic: Other Traffic/Safety Study Requests to Pedestrian Safety Study Request.

9 months later and nothing has changed. Not surprising.

Enforcement will continue to dispatch an officer daily to the area.

We are planning to install concrete jersey barriers along existing protected bike lanes (where feasible), including Washington Blvd., to increase the amount of protection and prevent cars from pulling over into the bike lanes. Work is estimated to begin in mid-May and be completed within approximately 30 days.

This sounds great. We’ll see if it actually happens. We’ve been told before that concrete barriers would be installed and it’s never happened.

Mid-May? That’s come and gone and it looks like nothings is being done. Not that I’m surprised. When’s the next imaginary date for the work to begin?

We apologize for the delay. Please be assured we are committed to this project. Although the order for jersey barriers for this purpose was placed in March, supply chain issues continue to affect delivery of materials. We are regularly in touch with the contractor and hope to be able to begin in June. Please note that Washington Blvd. will not be the starting location, but it is planned within this first phase of installations.

We get it. It’s not going to happen.

Update: Concrete jersey barriers have now been installed along most of the protected bike lane on Washington Blvd to add further protection from vehicles and help prevent drivers from parking in the bike lane. We are aware of some gaps where jersey barriers were not feasible and will assess other possible solutions.
