Description

Belgrove Drive

Speed bumps need to be added to Belgrove Drive. Cars, Busses, Motorcycle & Commercial Trucks are going down this road at double the speed. This road is being used a raceway by drivers which are trying to avoid traffic along Kearny & Passaic Ave. It’s only a matter of time until someone gets hurt or killed.
There’s a substantial amount of pedestrian activity on this road at all times:
• Parents, Kids, walking to belgrove playground, vet’s field, boys town.
• Parents, Kids walking to School (Both Garfield School & Washington School)
• Foot Traffic - funeral homes: Thiele & Armitage
• Foot Traffic – Church
• Commuters for both: Rutgers & NJIT (School Shuttle Route) & NJ Transit Bus
• Dog Walkers – Throughout day and night
• Joggers
• Cyclist
• Kids playing outside their front yards (Belgrove has a substantial amount of Families with young kids)

Needless to say that there are multiple events that occur on this road during the year:
• Memorial Day Parade
• Night Out Event
• 4th of July Fire Works
• Baseball & Football Games at Vets Field (throughout spring & fall)

Something needs to be done before something tragic happens.
