  • Freedom Pl & Garfield Ave Jersey City, NJ, 07305, USA - Greenville
    1am loud drilling. I understand sewers are being fixed and that's great but does loud drilling really have to take place at 1am? The whole family, including kids, were up all night on a school night. I just feel like there is no regard to the residents who live in the area. Can the loud drilling be done during the day?

    Once again pedestrian crossing blocked. additionally, the crew started to open the fence gate to the maximum possible width effectively blocking egress and ingress to pedestrian passages set with plastic blocks. so people enter on one side and get to the other side to find they are totally blocked. I spoke with the two crewmen today and yesterday but they just didn't care. I also spoke with a police officer who was on the construction site who said he doesn't see a problem of people being blocked and caged as "this is a construction and if I don't like it I should use another side of the street". the thing is that on the opposite side there is another construction which permanently blocks the pedestrian crossing.

    also no flaggers, zero help from the crew.

  • Huron Ave & Saint Pauls Ave Jersey City, NJ, 07306, USA - Journal Square
    Every day there are barriers and cones in the road for this private school. It feels very dangerous. Do they have a permit for this? Would this be a good place for bumpouts and an rfp? Proper infrastructure rather than a diy from god knows who. Ward c has to take matters into our own hands?
  • 591 Summit Ave Jersey City, NJ 07306, USA - Journal Square
    The poles of this structure are too closely situated on this block. There is not enough clearance with the light post.
  • 4th St Jersey City, NJ, 07302, USA - Downtown
    Metro Plaza construction site added extremely wide pedestrian walkway, taking over an entire traffic lane. The result is an extremely sharp jog in traffic lanes within the 4th Street/Marin intersection with a SB left turn lane. Bicycles will share the walkway with pedestrians. The southbound left turn lane has been reduced in length so only two vehicles can fit while waiting for on-coming traffic to lighten up to make the turn - causing a back up to the single southbound lane. At the north end of the construction site, it also has a jog with three lanes having to make the abrupt adjustments upon exiting or entering the intersection at Sixth Street. Vehicles travel at fast speeds, not always staying in the lane they should be in. It could be a matter of time with head on collisions or pedestrians scrambling to maneuver through the area.

    BOTH SIDES OF THE SIDEWALK ON SUMMIT AVE ARE CLOSED OFF TO PEDESTRIANS! ARE WE EXPECTED TO WALK IN THE ROAD?! YOU NEED TO TELL DEVELOPERS THEY NEED TO BUILD SHEDS/SCAFFOLDING BEFORE WORK ON A SITE EVEN STARTS SO PEDESTRIANS CAN WALK WITHOUT INTERRUPTION. OTHERWISE, THEY WILL BE SHUT DOWN UNTIL THEY LEARN TO ACT CIVILIZED.

    CLOSE THE ROAD TO TRAFFIC IF PEDESTRIANS CAN'T USE THE SIDEWALK, WALKING WITHIN INCHES OF TRUCKS AND BUSES IS UNSAFE!!!

    I AM SICK OF RESIDENTS BEING INCONVENIENCED AND ENDANGERED BY CONSTRUCTION PROJECTS. YOU NEED TO TELL THESE PROJECTS THEY CAN'T PROCEED SIMULTANEOUSLY. TELL THEM THAT THE PEOPLE OF JERSEY CITY MATTER MORE THAN THE UGLY OVER PRICED BUILDINGS THEY ARE PUTTING UP!!!!! TELL THEM THAT SIDEWALKS ARE NOT OPTIONAL!!!!!

    THIS IS INCREDIBLY DISRESPECTFUL TO THE PUBLIC.

  • Bleecker St & John F Kennedy Blvd Jersey City, NJ, 07307, USA - The Heights
    This is regarding the new construction on JFK Blvd and Bleecker st. Address is 3518 Kennedy Blvd. More than half of the sidewalk on Bleecker st. is taken up for construction. Shouldn't it be half of the sidewalk?
