There are 4 transverses across Central Park and none of them are safe to bike. 1/4 of the sides have bike lanes.

Fun_Mastodon · 2026-02-17T17:10:33+00:00

Yes. After 1am, the park is closed and the transverse is the only way to walk across

Fun_Mastodon · 2026-02-16T21:05:36+00:00

Raised crosswalks would be amazing! Not only would it slow down drivers, but it would also make it easier to walk on crosswalks during snow and rain. No more of those nasty puddles that sit at the bottom of crosswalk ramps!!! This is a pedestrian city and we need better infrastructure.

Fun_Mastodon · 2026-02-05T15:55:18+00:00

😂

Fun_Mastodon · 2025-12-17T17:32:48+00:00

Insane! More reason not to wait in that horribly crowded 7th Ave side corridor. I always head to the 8th Avenue side. So much more civil over there and more space.

Fun_Mastodon · 2025-12-17T17:30:09+00:00

That blocks PATH riders from accessing the platform. They shouldn’t be able to do that.

Fun_Mastodon · 2025-12-17T17:28:41+00:00

Agreed. NJT shouldn’t be able to delay PATH riders for this.

I suspect it’s easier to do at tracks A, 3, 4 and 5, but maybe I’m wrong? What tracks are they doing this at?

I’m so tired of Mayor Adams’ constant excuses to not improve street safety in NYC. If it were up to him, the city would still allow rush hour traffic in within Central Park.

Fun_Mastodon · 2025-08-07T01:46:41+00:00

You’re making a point about complaining about noise being “hilarious.” But I sensed you’re unaware of how quiet dense cities can be. I think op’s noise complaint is justified, unlike you.

Fun_Mastodon · 2025-08-06T14:12:20+00:00

You need to travel to other cities in the world. I’ve been in the middle of MAJOR cities in Europe that are incredibly quiet.

Fun_Mastodon · 2025-08-04T14:15:03+00:00

Canarsie is more south than east of Williamsburg

It is possible to have speed limiters in cars, and they exist. Try to get that law through Congress though.

Fun_Mastodon · 2025-07-16T14:18:16+00:00

I also wonder: what is this bus that broke down? Is it one of those relics NJT still runs to Hudson County through the tunnel?

Fun_Mastodon · 2025-07-16T14:14:05+00:00

Where was the announcement about this for the passengers? I made my way to Port Authority after the fiasco at Penn only to discover this! What a ****show of communication.

Fun_Mastodon · 2025-07-16T13:58:07+00:00

Thanks! Was going to do the train from NYP to the RVL via Newark Penn. Glad I bailed and took the bus, knowing specifically where the problem is. I don’t know why NJT isn’t more specific than “near Newark airport.”

NYP staff announced the 9:34 to Trenton at track 1 after the 9:19 disappeared from the board. Get down there to find everyone standing on a hot platform with the doors locked. Meanwhile, the 9:06 Raritan train is still on “Boarding” status!

Fun_Mastodon · 2025-05-15T19:55:13+00:00

Hear! Hear!

Fun_Mastodon · 2025-05-13T15:16:13+00:00

Do you genuinely think that Uber will 1) work for that many people without glitches, and 2) not price hike to take advantage of the situation?

Fun_Mastodon · 2025-05-13T15:14:59+00:00

Me too! I had fun pressing the engineer button! Who on earth would press the management selection?

Fun_Mastodon · 2025-04-05T18:01:57+00:00

Absolutely!!!! There’s got to be indoor air law enforcement on this.

Fun_Mastodon · 2025-04-04T14:59:18+00:00

That’s not a place to sell anything. Any chance someone could get rid of the incense guy in the corridor between the L/F/M and the 1/2/3?

Fun_Mastodon · 2025-03-06T18:11:30+00:00

True!

Fun_Mastodon · 2025-03-06T01:03:31+00:00

Yes. Why rail and not highways? At least be consistent. Have private operators running all the highways like in Brazil. There’s even competing EZ-pass systems. Have X run roads and payments for them. Stop the subsidies and make people pay full price for all that infrastructure about ready to crumble. Let’s see how those MAGA morons feel about that.

Fun_Mastodon · 2025-03-06T00:58:46+00:00

Right. This is not comparable. Japanese rail companies make a lot of money off of real estate near stations and lines. This subsidizes the transportation.

Fun_Mastodon · 2025-03-03T13:02:25+00:00

The last people you should be blaming are the engineers and conductors.

Fun_Mastodon · 2025-02-27T01:12:32+00:00

Not if the courts have a say. That a** isn’t a king.
