Comment on What Will a Fulop Administration Mean for Transportation in Jersey City? by Larry Higgs

Larry Higgs — Thu, 23 May 2013 16:40:09 +0000

As a JC resident and (full disclosure) a Fulop supporter, I have yet to see any of the much ballyhooed Healey bike lanes materialize except for the so-called “experimental” bike lane on Grove Street. Hoboken gets their bike lanes in much faster. How much is a bucket of white paint and the appropriate stencils?
As for parking, I live in a neighborhood of “old school” one and multi family dwellings without the luxury of off street parking. Culling the herd of parking spaces will not discourage people from bringing their cars, it will only make Jersey City as hard to park in as Hoboken. Neither will the concept of letting developers slide on off site parking requirements, that will only impact existing middle class residents who cant afford to pony up $$$ to buy space in a parking garage like Joe and Jane Porsche Cayenne can afford.
The issue isn’t discouraging people from bringing a car in to the city, it’s discouraging them from bringing in the second car. Case in point is Crescent Point, the relatively new condo complex in the “Italian Village”. Residents there get a space in a garage, but have to buy a space for an addition car. Guess where the second car winds up? Guess who’s parking gets taken away? The resident living in an older, existing unit with no off street parking.
While I support the painful elimination of spaces 25 feet from a cross walk, which makes it safer for me as a driver to see pedestrians before they step out, there has to be balance.
Here’s a suggestion to help mobility in the city- allow cabs to pick up people who hail them on the street. More income for cabbies, better use of resource instead of an empty cab wasting fuel to go back to the cab stand.
