Big step forward coming for #Hoboken! When Grand Street is resurfaced in the coming weeks, the city will pilot the ever protected bike lane through the interior of Hoboken! How exciting!

Update: exciting things happening here.

“We – dealers, manufacturers, auto lenders – don’t learn our lessons from the past,” Schwartz said. “I’m sure bank presidents back then said, ‘We’re never doing 96-month loans again.’ And here we are, 15 years later, and we’re getting right back into it. It’s crazy.”

So, effectively, a Democrat just signed into law a tax cut on coal and gas power?

Each election season, we ask Hoboken's candidates where they stand on transportation issues that matter to you! Visit bikehoboken.org/articles/may... Responders include: Michael Russo Dini Ajmani @hobokenemily.bsky.social and Ruben Ramos

Hoboken just activated an automated system for ticketing cars that are illegally parked in bike lanes and bus stops. Imagine if NYC did this!

We are thankful for the City Council and Mayor Bhalla approving this plan — leading Hoboken toward safer streets and a more welcoming community! nyc.streetsblog.org/2025/09/29/h...

A great outsider look at the #Hoboken approach to Vision Zero, and how many of our traffic harm reduction strategies are transferrable to other cities: santacruzlocal.org/2025/08/22/t... Featuring @ravibhalla.bsky.social

Once again, the people accusing safe streets advocates of controlling city government were the ones doing the bribes.

NJ Transit's official data makes it difficult to tell just how bad it is. So @suryamattu.com and I spent three months collecting the raw location data for more than 190,000 trains on NJT, Metro-North, and LIRR. Then @mariepastora.bsky.social made the graphics to show you. The answer: Very bad.

We spoke with Gothamist to talk about the disruptions to PATH train service in #hoboken and the impact it’s having on commuters: gothamist.com/news/port-au...

One of the most popular car YouTubers put Rivian’s CEO on the defensive about car bloat. I agree—this is genuine progress.

I'm old enough to remember when @thewaroncars.bsky.social were the only ones showing up to car shows to ask manufacturers whether it was responsible to make cars so big and powerful. Today, we have Doug DeMuro asking the same question to the CEO of Rivian.

OPINION: Actually, Amazon’s Cargo E-Bikes are Good! - nyc.streetsblog.org/2025/08/05/o...

What's going on with the PATH? How did the system get to this point? We spoke with the Joint Transit Association to discuss the history of the PATH system, and the campaign being led by @hudcostreets.org to make things better. youtu.be/92KNpPvAw2I

This is a great example of a city responding to reasonable concerns from the community about a project involving a bike lane, and adapting the plan to build consensus. Well done, #hoboken! hudsoncountyview.com/2nd-virtual-...

Congestion pricing by the # ‘s 6 months in: * 67k fewer drivers entering zone daily * Delays in Holland Tunnel down 65% * Traffic deaths down 32% so far in 2025 * $500m projected this year for MTA capital improvements * B’way attendance +12% * Subway ridership +7% So yes this program is a SUCCESS.

New Yorkers en route to New Jersey for resiliency inspo. @ny4p.bsky.social co-hosted a resiliency tour in Hoboken w @rebuildbydesign.bsky.social We invited Play Fair Coalition members to learn how the city reduced flooding by up to 88% while creating incredible public spaces.

Faster, more frequent buses! Brought to you by congestion pricing. "The MTA has already increased service on eight key express routes heading into Midtown. Next week’s improvements are meant to speed up travel within the boroughs on lines with particularly high ridership." —@nydailynews.com

Message for local #hoboken folk:

Haven’t seen any full crowd photos from #nokings #nyc This is a crowd from 36th to 25th. The crowd was full, at least to 40th, behind us.

NYPD Commissioner Jessica Tisch started a crackdown on e-bike riders on April 28, citing their danger. But the data shows that e-bike riders are *safer now* than they were during the same period last year.

Over the past year, Hoboken has been working on a study to reimagine how we use one of our City’s most important public resources: the curb. The study is coming to an end, but we need you to take action THIS WEEK to make sure your voice is heard. 🧵

Breaking: Newark, New Jersey Mayor Ras Baraka (D) has just been arrested by the Trump administration after he was protesting outside of an ICE facility.

New Jersey’s stubbornness wins again.

Had my first bike commute this week since congestion pricing went into effect and the improvement is *insane*. Totally transformative.

"This project is a disaster for Jersey City and Hoboken. Our community is already overburdened by air pollution" Thank you Assemblywoman Ramirez for opposing this ridiculous highway widening! We need investments in clean air and transit instead: hudsoncountyview.com/ramirez-blas...

Join us on Sunday, April 27th, after our Community Bike Ride, for the Earth Day Celebration & Music Festival! We’ll have a bike valet to safely store your bike or scooter for the day, along with our tune up stand to help out with simple repairs and maintenance - all at no cost. See you there!

This is essentially the entirety of American street safety discourse.

Second point on DOT's $3bn cost estimate for hardened daylighting citywide. Hoboken Mayor Ravi Bhalla said at a rally earlier that his city put in a few plastic bollards for about $100 per location. For two corners at each of the city's 40k intersection that comes to around $8 million.

As DOT puts out these large and scary stats, it's important to remember that just across the Hudson River, Hoboken, NJ, has cut traffic deaths to zero over the past eight years, following an aggressive roll out of daylighting.

New York City is the Punta Cana of America

just wait until eric adams finds out who’s responsible for road safety measures

I’ve seen the new pedibike Amazon trucks running around Manhattan, but this is the first I’ve seen of this trailer version powered by a @ternbicycles.com. Cool stuff!

@bikehoboken.org recently did an analysis of crash injuries in our city. The number 1 travel mode of injured persons were people in motor vehicles. Designing safer streets isn’t a war on cars - it’s a war on unnecessary injury and death.

The facts are secondary though. Many businesses are more responsive to the people who complain, even if they're in the minority! And they take for granted the customers who walk/bike to the store, despite their trips being more dangerous. They don't realize they can lose those customers too.

Last Saturday I joined Hudson County Complete Streets at #Hoboken Terminal to collect over 100 more petition signatures for the Port Authority, to ask for more weekend PATH service, more weekday evening service, and an extension of service to Newark Airport. 🚊 👏🏻

There is not enough parking

Dedicating the rest of my year to finding this bike and bringing it trans-Hudson.

Continuing this week's discussion of the 2024 Bike Hoboken Traffic Injury Report, we found that Hoboken’s crash injuries contain predictable factors that make them very addressable. 1/

@stevenfulop.bsky.social you owe the lady keeping a close eye on that '4' a beer.

Bike Hoboken's 2024 Traffic Injury Report has identified a concerning trend in our city. Due to our national prominence as a model of Vision Zero success in the US, it's imperative that we correct this issue.
