I'm in. Maybe there's a way to coordinate with the Straphanger's Campaign folks on the NYC side?

Make sure you focus this on PATH citywide, not just dtjc. Its getting bad up here at JSQ, and the towers aren't even in yet.

Quite a regular

And it's only getting worse with the influx of high rises going up, which means massive population increases. The mayor is busy with his self-promotion (for what everyone assumes is a run at the governor's seat), but not addressing issues like this, other than to bash the Port Authority when he can.

I'm in, but remember that PATH has been neglected and sucked for decades; the past few years have been impacted by the storm of a century mostly.

I think its clear to us all now that the Path issues of the past few years are here to stay--unless we do something about it.
While Jersey City is experiencing a major growth spurt and finally coming again into its own...the PATH is working hard to undue all the work that the community has put into improving JC. I'm reaching out to propose a community group focused on FIXING the PATH. See below some initial ideas. If you are interested in helping me start this community group, please directly reply and I'll email everyone. We can then organize a meeting somewhere in DTJC. Some of the ideas I would propose include: 1. Providing Consistent Reliable Service -Port Authority telling us once and for all what the signal and equipment problems are and what they are doing to fix them in the long-run. -Considering other route options like Express service from main departure hubs to main arrival hubs (Express from JSQ to 33, or Grove to 33, etc). These could be particularly useful during delays 2. Better communication -Their tweets and alerts are well after the fact. -Not all people use technology--can the red jacket folks come out of the station and put up a sign that says the path is delayed? 3. Long-term improvements -Jersey City is growing. On its way to be the largest city in New Jersey. What is the PATH doing about planning for this? More trains, more staff?
