I have almost been hit in that cross walk by the library with my three year old and dog, it's getting to be such a bad road, something needs to change!
Rachel supported: Install Traffic Calming Measures on South 120thWe are absolutely fed up with traffic flying through our neighborhood, at speeds too high, with many failures to stop at stop signs. Neighborhoods being threatened by some of these drivers, I had a man swerving to ‘pretend’ to hit me while going to get my mail. We had a semi stuck in our yard for over 4 hours, while blocking traffic and leading to 2 cars getting stuck in our neighbors yard-just trying to turn around to get out. We also had a city bus cutting through. It’s been sheer madness, and the roundabout has not yet started. We do not feel safe, we do NOT want semi’s, city buses, or any vehicles cutting through our neighborhood-unless they belong there. We give our permission for IMPD to park in our driveway and issue warnings/tickets to slow the stream and speed of traffic. Understanding we ‘can’t’ stop progress, but we sure can slow it down to protect our community. Please help support us by making sure we don’t have the same problems! Thank you
Meg supported: College Commons street closure petition 46240We are tired of the speeding. People disregarding stop signs as well as signs that say local traffic only. I was threatened by a driver while walking my dog. We need to protect safety and our property. I believe the street closures are the way to accomplish keeping our neighborhood safe and livable during the construction.
Shirley supported: College Commons street closure petition 46240A development of this scale directly conflicts with Nutley’s Master Plan, which prioritizes preserving residential character and ensuring land use that serves the public good.
This project would introduce high-volume truck traffic onto Kingsland Street—a road not designed for industrial vehicles and already known for accidents and congestion. According to NJDOT design standards, facilities with heavy truck traffic should have direct highway access. This site does not, and forcing trucks through residential streets endangers our families and undermines traffic safety principles.
This proposal compromises the integrity of Nutley’s planning goals, violates smart traffic design, and puts residents at risk. Please uphold the standards we rely on to keep Nutley safe and livable.
Monica supported: Stop Warehouse Construction from Destroying NutleyThis site has a troubling environmental history, including a $17.5 million class-action settlement after toxic contamination from the former Hoffmann-La Roche facility impacted over 400 homeowners. Proposing new industrial development here — without full transparency or long-term health safeguards — is both reckless and disrespectful to those already affected.
The introduction of heavy truck traffic will degrade our air quality, reduce our property values, and erode our community’s quality of life and park system. Families should not have to live with constant noise, diesel fumes, or the danger of massive trucks near their homes and schools. Nutley deserves safe, healthy neighborhoods — not an industrial zone in the middle of a residential area.
To our elected officials and planning board, please listen to the residents who live here, who pay taxes here, and who raise families here. A mega-warehouse may bring short-term profit, but it will cost this community in the long run — in health, in safety, in peace of mind, and in pride of place.
Brigette supported: Stop Warehouse Construction from Destroying NutleyI strongly oppose the construction of a trucking warehouse in Nutley near a residential neighborhood. This kind of facility belongs in an industrial zone, not next to homes, schools, and parks. The increased traffic, noise, air pollution, and safety risks from constant truck movement will seriously impact the quality of life for residents. It’s unacceptable to prioritize industrial development over the well-being and peace of a community. Nutley deserves thoughtful planning that respects its neighborhoods and the people who live in them
Nikki supported: Stop Warehouse Construction from Destroying NutleyI am strongly against the usage of 275 Kingsland St. property as a warehouse. My preference is to take out concrete pavement and plant trees there with either a walking path or swimming pool in the middle. Loss of tax revenue for the town may be around $50 per household, which may be weighted by people living in Nutley in the referendum.
There is already enough noise in town caused by night racing on Rt. 3, airplanes from Teterboro and Newark airports and general traffic noise. Noise increase has a negative impact on health. Global warming may trigger reduction of trade which may leave Nutley with abandoned warehouse.
Removing concrete could increase water absorption and prevent flooding in the lower areas of the town.
Stanislav supported: Stop Warehouse Construction from Destroying NutleyI live on a road off of Long Meadow Rd. It is very difficult to get out of my road onto Long Meadow Rd due to so much traffic. I sit waiting sometimes 10 mins. And even then I have to race to get out between cars which is risky in itself! I have lived in this residence over 18 years and traffic has become increasingly worse.
Kellie supported: Improve Road Safety on Longmeadow Road, Hagerstown with Proper Lighting and Traffic LightsWe need Hagerstown roads to be safer not just for myself but my children and future generations.
Lucille supported: Improve Road Safety on Longmeadow Road, Hagerstown with Proper Lighting and Traffic LightsWe live in a development off of Longmeadow Rd. We should be able to use Halifax Drive as the road to exit our development (Fountainhead Manor) but we can not due to safety issues pulling out onto Longmeadow Road. In order to exit our neighborhood somewhat safely, we must drive to Pulaski Drive or Cambridge Drive. Please put a light at Halifax and Longmeadow. Our population has grown so much in the 20 years that we have lived in Fountainhead Manor. It is not safe for ANYONE to pull out of Halifax Drive onto Longmeadow. It makes me nervous anytime I see a car sitting at that stop sign.
