Description
Third and fourth street on jersey avenue the church blocked off half the sidewalk without making a path with barracades so pedestrians can navigate safely without crossing the two way street. They fixed the sidewalk with scaffolding on sixth and Monmouth after months. Division street between sixth and seventh has created a pedestrian path way with barricades. Are there different rules for different situations or should contractors all make walkways for pedestrians safety

DRennar, you are forgetting that Jersey City is an ineptly governed city. Heck, we have Mayor Fulop's 'Stop the Drop' campaign, yet the idiot lets trash cans placed by the city go full and use lame "It's household trash" excuses (it ISN'T HOUSEHOLD TRASH).
Perhaps an adequately governed city would care about pedestrians and mandate sidewalk sheds around construction sites. Not Jersey City - that would dig into developer's pockets too much. Besides, the last thing we can count on our Jersey City Government to do is look out for the citizens.
As far as the site you mentioned, sadly it is a church with limited funds to fix the crumbling facade issue. I wouldn't expect the sidewalk to open anytime this decade.
