1/3) When I first ran for City Council, one of my top priorities was ensuring the revitalization of the 16th Street Park. Last week, the council approved the contract, the final hurdle before construction begins shortly!

Healthy lifestyles are a lot easier if you don't drive everywhere.

The broke city's guide to traffic calming: old concrete pipe filled with dirt are one the cheapest yet most effective ways to turn any resident intersection into a mini roundabout!

Near impossible to speed through the intersection, and doesn't negatively impact pedestrians!

.Governor Phil Murphy NJT desperately needs a dedicated, permanent source of funding. 3rd largest US transit system, supports $62B in wages. Unfathomable that you champion turnpike expansion & oppose congestion pricing w/o a solution for NJ TRANSIT.

I genuinely wish every person up in arms about congestion pricing—a policy that would affect an extremely small number of wealthy NJans—would put that energy into caring about issues like transit, highway widenings, bike/ped safety as well. Things that *actually* hurt NJ.

Did you witness a hit-and-run at Bowers & Hancock Ave. in Jersey City yesterday around 4 PM? A local family’s dog was tragically hit by a car that fled the scene. They need your help!

“I urge NJ Transit, in the strongest terms possible, to reject what is for residents of #HudsonCounty , an unconscionable increase to utilize our transit system.'

Excited to collaborate with Mayor Fulop on turning Barrow St. into a vibrant, family-friendly space. Looking forward to working with the neighborhood and businesses to plan this effectively!

This Friday! Our April Light-Up Ride meets 7:00 p.m., rolls 7:30 from Grove PATH Plaza.
Shortish: 10 miles, heading south and west within JC then back to Grove.

Surprise surprise dude with speed hunters decal gets in car crash. His is the car facing oncoming traffic btw

We did this but prior to our admin wasn’t political will for change.
Now we’re going to extend the area further w/constructing a large playground as an extension on the stretch on Barrow Street between Newark/Columbus. It will energize with children/parents. Will attract family…

To improve traffic & pedestrian safety, the JC Dept of Infrastructure held a Traffic Calming Pop-Up Event along Monticello on the Westside. Areas were painted with the help of the community to allow safer crossings at the intersections between Fairview & Fairmont Ave. #visionzero

Today!

The question is who are you fighting for? I understand the NJ political rhetoric on this from Governor Phil Murphy + others (and I’m an outlier in my view) BUT if you look at it fairly it is the wealthiest 2% of people that can afford to drive their personal vehicle every day to work in…
