I recently learned that there's 19K people driving daily on this road, and ~60K bus riders daily! Def seems like more space should be going to buses than cars given there are 3X more riders. Kudos to Hudson County for pursuing this project, it could be the largest BRT in the country outside of NYC.

N.J. never had a true bus rapid transit. That could change for a county that desperately needs it.
An 11-mile section of busy Kennedy Boulevard between the southern tip of Bayonne and the Union City-Jersey City border could be the first.

Cinnabon food trucks can just take up valuable space in front of JSQ? I thought this space was for taxis and pick ups. Now pickups are blocking the right lane of Kennedy? Are they paying to use this space? This seems like total chaos.

Interesting island platform bus stop with the bike lanes to the right of the stop. There’s also an interesting piece of bus infrastructure with a bus only left turn coming from Carey Rd in onto the SB Route transcanadienne.
Screenshot of Apple Maps street view photo of a turn lane with a sign that has a crossed out left turn and under it says “except buses”. Below it is showing the map and location on SB Carey Rd before Highway 1 A screenshot of the location on the map in Saanich BC showing Carey and Hwy 1 highlighting the buses at the stop on SB Carey Rd, which shows that 6 buses line stop there.

Earlier this month, yet another serious preventable crash happened on our city streets. SafeStreetsJC releases the following statement calling for rapid, low-cost quick-build improvements to all our serious and fatal crash locations, including left-turn calming and leading pedestrian intervals.
On Friday, August 7th at Montgomery & Barrow, yet another left-turning driver hit a pedestrian in a crosswalk in downtown Jersey City, leaving the pedestrian in critical condition. We pray for their quick and full recovery. Last year, at Jersey & 6th and Summit & Sip, two vulnerable road users were killed last year by left-turning vehicles that did not yield. The continued level of injuries of vulnerable road users is unacceptable under Jersey City’s commitment to Vision Zero.

Over a year has passed and no progress has been made on addressing these and other fatal and serious injury crash locations with quick builds and improved street design. Leading pedestrian intervals and banning left turns at key intersections can be done immediately at little cost, if any, to Jersey City; until changes are made, dangerous intersections continue to be dangerous with no relief in sight. 

Considering the level of danger on our streets, the time for more studies, more explanations, and more delays is over. We call on Jersey City to get things done and release its plan to reduce injuries at fatal and serious injury intersections, calm left turns, and promote safer, alternative modes of transportation with improved bus priority and building protected bike lanes.
