My fav spots are the random sharp pipes sticking out from the ground.

I like the out of nowhere piles of cement on 139 where it merges with 78 before the Holland. And it’s been like that for years.

Had to pick someone up at Newark Penn a few weeks back and the roads between JC and Newark and in Newark were soooo bad. No painted lines and tons of pot holes and sunken manhole covers

This whole “we won’t repaint road stripes until the old one has completely vanished” is just dangerous nonsense. If Union City can repaint every line every year, so can we.

Is this sarcastic? I haven’t noticed anything. What area are you talking about?

440 is paved pretty well down there.

440 is good. I recently got a flat tire on a side roads around Costco. Stay away from rightmost lane there if possible.

On another note that intersection to turn into Costco from goldsborough drive is such a nightmare. Last month? There was a three car accident right in the middle of it. I wonder if it’s worth it to email the Bayonne mayor/whoever about putting a light there or at least making it an all way stop.

Bayonne resident here, our roads are okay. Broadway seems to be a less bumpier than Garfield, and they recently did some paving along Avenue A not too long ago

Unfair to compare a state with the same population as Hudson County. Traffic destroys streets, as well as constantly tearing them up for utilities, neither of which applies to VT.

Yea there’s very little traffic.

Does traffic destroy the streets? I assumed it was more the weather. It would seem that we should by now have the capability to create roads that withstand cars! Lol like just build something that is designed to actually function as it should.

Its far more heavy trucks than cars that destroy streets, and we got plenty of them. Its why parkways require much less maintenance than highways. Weather plays into it, as water seeps into cracks created by trucks and freezes, but it needs those cracks.
