Jersey City, NJ đã giao vấn đề này cho Traffic – Jennifer C

This request has been forwarded to NJDOT as this is a state road.

Reopening this thread given that a pedestrian was hit by a driver here this morning. Forwarding to NJ DOT is clearly not enough - what else can the City do to get the state to take safety seriously here?

Agree with OP. When people are dying and nearly getting hit daily, Jersey city has a larger responsibility here than just forwarding complaints to NJDOT.

The City has no jurisdiction over a state roads.

(OP) 139 is a state road but Baldwin isn't -- the real issue seems to be the lights controlling traffic on Baldwin (entering/exiting, turning onto the 139 from Baldwin) Would this be JC jurisdiction, or also NJDOT (genuine question)?

The state controls the traffic lights associated with 139.

Who do we have to contact at NJDOT then? This is ridiculous.

I found this website and left this response. Maybe if others do similar this issue will get looked at.

"Hello,
I'm writing regarding the traffic pattern at 139 (upper) and Baldwin Ave in Jersey City, 07306. Many months ago the traffic pattern going North and South on Baldwin, crossing the 139, was changed. It used to be that the Southbound lane had a green light first, then it changed to red, then the Northbound lanes would get the green. Now they change at the same time. This creates daily hazards for cars, pedestrians, and cyclists. I live at the intersection and see near-accidents daily. Since there is not a green arrow to enter the 139, cars are moving in 4 directions at once on a two-lane road. The road is just wide enough that cars try to sneak by those who are turning left, sometimes moving into the crosswalk.
My request is that the pattern reverts back to its old iteration, or, install left-turn arrows at this light. Either of these would fix what is truly a major safety hazard. I have reported this twice to Jersey City's "See, Click, Fix" page and they have responded that this is a problem for NJDOT.
Thank you.

Thank you!!
