  • Ontario St Cohoes, NY - Cohoes
    Only way to get there new GLOBAL FOUNDRIES Plant or the malls in Saratoga county by bus is to travel via Schenectady which would take one and half hours to go 12 miles. How can you get an job at a Rt 146 mall without a car?
  • 428 Saratoga Street Cohoes, New York - Cohoes
    CDTA operates Northway express buses that run from Saratoga County to Albany they run empty on the return trips. That means Northbound is empty in the AM and Southbound is empty in the PM. Some of these empty return buses could make a stop at EITHER Rt. 32 and Tibbits Ave OR Rt. 32 and 23rd St to pick up passengers for GLOBAL FOUNDRIES. The return buses current pass by these two intersections.
    Current there is no way to get there new GLOBAL FOUNDRIES Plant or the malls in Saratoga county by bus. How can you get a job at Rt. 146 malls or GLOBAL FOUNDRIES without a car?
  • 50 Willow St Cohoes, NY 12047, USA - Cohoes

    Residents of the Cohoes Hill neighborhood around the area of the Polish-American Association should not have to put up with the bar's music cranked up to volume 10 all night, vibrating everybody's houses and keeping people awake!

    We should also not have to put up with the loud, drunken people staggering out all over the place into the middle of the street and making noise until 1AM every single weekend!

    Not to mention all the drunk drivers who stumble out of the bar and then speed down the residential streets at 50 MPH as if they were racetracks!

    Plus, I'll bet at least 1/2 of the people getting in their cars after a night of boozing it up over there every weekend are repeat DWI's!!

    The other issue is that every Friday and Saturday night, the people who actually LIVE on this street have NO PLACE TO PARK because all the people who go to the bar take up every single parking space on the street!!!

    I LIVE HERE!!! I shouldn't have to park 4 blocks away because every drunk in the city is parked right in front of my doorstep!

    I understand that the Polish Association is a part of this community too, but I think that they and their patrons should be a little more considerate to the residents of this neighborhood who have to try to SLEEP at night!

  • Bridge St Cohoes, NY 12047, USA - Cohoes
    The Rail Road crossing is very rough almost bad enough to get stuck on.
  • 616-620 Saratoga St Cohoes, NY 12047, USA - Cohoes
    The stop light in front of Hot Dog Charlies is not needed. When it was blinking during the daytime, traffic was flowing so smooth. Take it out all together.
  • 112th St Troy, NY 12182, USA - Cohoes

    There are MANY lights out on the 112th St. Bridge.

    They need to be repaired. I would estimate approximately 75% of them are not working. This is a very poor reflection on the City of Troy.

  • Central Ave Cohoes, NY - Cohoes
    Central Ave in Cohoes is too narrow for parking on both sides, especially with comercial business trucks and equiptment parked on the street and sidewalks.
  • 196 Saratoga St Cohoes, NY - Cohoes
    On NY Route 32 southbound, there is a sign with the highway numbers on it which is COMPLETELY covered by overgrown trees. The Highway Departement needs to cut back all the overgrowth on this street, so that the road signs are more visible!!
  • 8 Columbia St Cohoes, NY - Cohoes

    The area between the railroad tracks and Main Street on Columbia Street is one of the bumpyest streets in the City of Cohoes!

    I thought there was a new push to fix up the Columbia Street corridor and give it a better appearance and repair the horrendous conditions of the streets in the area!

    Why isn't this section getting the repairs it needs? They paved SOME of the upper portions, but ignored the lower part!

    FIX THE STREETS OF THIS CITY NOW!!! Your neglect is RUINING OUR CARS!!!!

  • 216 Mohawk Street Cohoes, New York - Cohoes

    This intersection looks like the streets of New Delhi, India during rush hours when a train is crossing!

    Yesterday at 4:45PM, approximately 20-30 vehicles were waiting on each street at Mohawk St., Columbia St., Bridge Ave., Remsen St., and Cohoes Rd. for the train to cross.

    I was on Mohawk St. headed south. My vehicle was stopped and waiting for the train just like everyone else was. As soon as the train passed by, 5-6 cars peeled-out and violently passed me and 4 other cars on the left side of the road in order to make the left turn over the railroad crossing, in order to get to Interstate 787!

    The chaos and agressive road-rage that this intersection causes is intolerable! Someone is going to get killed here because of this horrific bottleneck which needs to be completely reconstructed NOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    THE TRAIN CROSSINGS IN COHOES HAVE BECOME A DANGEROUS TRAVEL NIGHTMARE!!!! FIX THEM NOW!!!!!!!!!!!! MAKE THESE DEATH TRAP ROADWAYS ONE-WAY STREETS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • 1-11 Vliet St Cohoes, NY 12047, USA - Cohoes

    The City of Cohoes (either Water or Sewer Dept.) dug up parts of Vliet Street and then left humungous 1-foot deep potholes all over this neighborhood! I hit one of them and my car's tie-rod almost popped out!

    Come on, Mayor Pothole!! Please re-pave these crumbling streets NOW!

  • 340 Vliet Blvd Cohoes, NY 12047, USA - Cohoes
    Vliet Street is completely disintegrated!
    The asphalt is crumbling, the drainage is horrendous, and the taxpayers and residents of this city DESERVE BETTER than to have the tires and suspension and steering of their cars constantly DAMAGED by this kind of neglect!
    I don't understand how a city can be so neglectful of the simplest part of its infrastructure: THE STREETS!!
    DEMAND BETTER FROM YOUR GOVERNMENT!!! REPAIR THESE CRUMBLING STREETS WE HAVE TO DRIVE ON EVERY DAY!!!!!
