Did you know...?

The Hoboken Master Plan (pdf) adopted by the City Council in 2004 offers the following recommendations:

• Master plan: green circuit/urban trails (click for larger version)

  "Provide additional bicycle storage at Hoboken Terminal and other transit stations....New Jersey Transit and/or the Port Authority should provide more formal bicycle storage space, possibly including a covered and secured area if not individual bicycle lockers. Bicycle storage should be provided at light rail stations and the uptown ferry stop as well.
• "Create a multi-use circuit around the City, if possible adjacent to the light rail tracks."
• "Consider designating a pair of north/south streets for bicycle traffic. Bicycling on City streets could be encouraged through such simple measures such as striping and signage. Possible streets include Park Avenue or Clinton Street in a northbound direction and Grand Street in a southbound direction."
• "Create park corridors or 'green streets'....redesign existing streets for greater use by bicyclists, pedestrians, runners, and skaters. These..."urban trail" streets...would connect existing and proposed parks, and would feature pedestrian improvements, additional trees, and signage."
