The public is invited to the second community meeting to provide input on the redesign of Observer Highway . The meeting will take place on Thursday, March 3rd from 6-8pm in the conference room in the basement of City Hall, 94 Washington Street.
The City of Hoboken has $2 million in federal funding to improve Observer Highway which was secured by Senator Robert Menendez.
“With this funding, we have an opportunity to transform Observer Highway into ‘Observer Boulevard ’ and create a more welcoming gateway to our City and a safer street for drivers, bicyclists, and pedestrians,” said Mayor Dawn Zimmer .
On August 17th, 2010, the first “Observer Highway Safety Re-Design Community Workshop” was held where the public provided input on the redesign for Observer Highway . Based on that feedback, engineers and planners have developed three alternative designs which will be presented for additional public input at the upcoming meeting.
