The roads in the heights are a mess. Take a drive on New york ave and you will realize what I am saying. They have been digging up to replace water lines for the last 12 months now. Any idea whether they will redo the roads soon?

I don’t get why they install speed bumps in the heights. Every road has natural and pse&g’s handiwork as speed deterrents.

Cameras(like NYC has) . Remove idiots who don't obey traffic laws from roads.

tons of people driving around without plates too. i’d rather have a physical barrier than a legal one when it comes to preventing kids from being run over in the crosswalk.

Cameras can still identify the car details and driver. People driving without plates need to be removed.

Yesterday I saw a dude cruising downhill on a side street, no-handed, fixing his hair on his bike. Super bold move

Typically wait for the warmer weather for road repairs so the snow/salt mix doesn’t ruin it as soon as it’s done

Lol come over to Union City, if a utility even breathes on a road, the entire block gets repaved within a month. Usually with 3 bright yellow speed bumps. Gotta love mayor stack

There’s so much construction in the heights, probably going to wait until a good majority is done. If not, they’ll just get cut up again. But I agree, the roads are atrocious

Forget roads, when do we get PATH tracks?

Probably after the roads are torn up for waterlines. The city seems to always get hell when the pseg or viola comes digging up a street right after it’s been repaved.
