Well said! The same $11B would be much better spent on simply repairing the bridge for $1B, and building more transit -- extending the PATH to Newark Airport, the HBLRT to Newark and Bergen County, and fixing NJT. $11B is a grotesque amount of money to spend on a bridge widening!

It is unthinkable, but NJ continues to forge ahead with an urban highway widening in 2025. Unbelievable anywhere, but especially from a purportedly blue state and governor that makes gestures at climate, all while NJ Transit continues to be underfunded. www.etany.org/alternatives...

It's amazing how much service has degraded over the years. The critical PATHForward infrastructure refresh should free up additional money & time to run more trains. With ever-increasing weekend ridership, it's time to AT MINIMUM return to historical service - and aim for even better!

Great op-ed. New Jersey should be looking for ways to support transit options into NYC, including improving service on the PATH, NJT, and buses into NYC. Not fighting congestion pricing. Give people more transit options to get into the city - including on weekends, when the transit is abysmal!

At the NJ Bike Walk summit today, great to hear NJ DOT commissioner Fran O'Connor commit to 1) revisiting the $11B Turnpike widening into Jersey City in light of the overwhelming community opposition, and 2) commitment to zero road deaths by 2040. Bravo 👏

It was great to have Hoboken Councilperson @hobokenemily.bsky.social join @hudcostreets.org's canvass today at Hoboken PATH, asking Governor Murphy for More PATH Trains! Big thanks to all 109 people who sent in letters today!

Thank you to our 3,000+ supporters for signing onto our PATH petition so far. This past week the PATH took notice of our campaign and set up the first of what we hope to be many conversations around how we can improve the PATH experience for all riders. More updates to come!

That's awful. Four gas power plants in four square miles in Newark further concentrates pollution in the most over-polluted part of the state. Newark, and New Jersey, deserves better.

Awesome in-person get-together of transit advocates this week in Jersey City to talk strategy. Thank you for joining us and advocating for a better, safer and more sustainable JC @katiebrennan.bsky.social

Thank you Mayor Bhalla for your strong and thoughtful support of transit in New Jersey! The PATH is a critical service in Hudson County and it deserves the attention to truly serve the needs of our community with frequent service.

Another great day signing up people to our petition for better PATH service on weekends! @eleanalittle.bsky.social 20-minute waits between trains at Exchange Place are agonizing, especially when it's not synchronized with the HBLRT schedule.

Incredible turnout this morning to the Liberty State Park Open House! This project is so vital to the health and natural environment of Jersey City and Northeast NJ. We have to get it right, and the plans so far look excellent. 🙏

With congestion pricing now live, a poignant reminder that driving into lower Manhattan is completely missing the point of New York.

Congestion tolls fund transit improvements that make it easier, faster and more convenient to take transit. What a great map!

To NJ residents waking up to the new NYC congestion tolls... remember, the Turnpike Authority increased tolls by 30% in Sept. 2020, and continues to hike tolls yearly. There's your tax on working-class commuters. At least the congestion charge tolls go into improving transit.

Yes. Simple solution to record low vacancy: build more homes. New construction relieves the pressure on other parts of the city and keeps other neighborhoods more affordable. Jersey City is doing its part, now other transit-rich parts of NJ and NY need to build more homes too.

The @nytransitmuseum.bsky.social holiday historical trains are amaaazing! What a fun way to spend an afternoon! Thank you for all the volunteers who make this possible

Last week I joined @eaconner.bsky.social, @talyaschwartz.bsky.social, Stephanie Martinez and other transit advocates from @hudcostreets.org at the Port Authority 2025 budget hearings to advocate for improved PATH train service - trains every 5 minutes, and an extension to Newark Airport!

20-40min waits for PATH trains?😡 The @panynj.bsky.social seeks public input for their 2025 budget! Demand increased off-peak service & Newark Airport extension. Submit written comments by Dec 9 and attend a public hearing! actionnetwork.org/letters/port... #PATH #NJTRANSIT #PORTAUTHORITYNYNJ

Right on! 20+ minute waits between trains on weekends and even in the middle of a weekday are outrageous. And why doesn't it run to Newark Airport - it ends just 3 miles away! We can do much better. I sent a letter to the Port Authority - let's get the PATH the attention and investment it needs!

For my first post, I'm sharing an image that deeply inspires me: the final image taken by the Voyager 1 spacecraft as it left our solar system. Earth is the tiny blue dot in the lower-right. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pale_Bl... We have just one Earth. We must do everything in our power to protect it.
