  • 555 Long Wharf Dr New Haven, Connecticut - Long Wharf
    I started across Long Wharf Dr from Hamilton St to the Maritime Center before 7am. I was carrying some heavy stuff and started across the street as there were no cars coming. I was just about into the second of the four lanes when a car came speeding around the corner from the intersection of East/Forbes/Water St and I had to run to get out of his way. He was NOT slowing down. PLEASE can we get some sort of Pedestrian signal besides the signs that are posted AT the crosswalk, which are no help whatsoever. I know the police are busy, and I appreciate that they have other things to attend to, but how about a having the traffic division come out for a few mornings and afternoons and issue tickets. Perhaps it would slow some of the drivers down. The cars coming through here are travelling well over the speed limit. It is like crossing a highway most days.

    600 Long Wharf Drive New Haven, Connecticut - Long Wharf
    The trucks came and cleared the lane that was reduced by the snow. However, the crosswalk is still unsafe as you have to wait in the street in order to cross. Cars travel way too fast through here and this is a severe safety hazard. There was an accident here last week, which I am sure is what caused the snow to be removed, but the corner of Hamilton St and Long Wharf needs to be cleared so that there is a safe place to wait to cross. In the pictures attached you can see that there is no place but the street to wait to cross. PLease remove the pile of snow from the street corner before someone gets hurt.

    High snow pile at the corner of Long Wharf Drive and Hamilton Street. Pedestrian and cars cannot see to pull out or cross the street without being in the roadway. Cars travel at highway speeds so this is a big concern. Thanks!

    There needs to be more signage leading up to the crosswalk as well as a sign in the street. Everyday there are close calls here. It is only a matter of time before someone is hit by a car. Can we get a flashing light?

    Pedestrian signs HAVE been installed at the crosswalk that connects the Maritime Center to Sports Haven. Thank you for that! However, they are AT the crosswalk, and by the time the drivers see the signs (if they are not texting or talking on their phone) they do not have time to stop. This morning there was another close call when someone actually did stop, three cars went around and another slammed on her breaks so not to hit the car that stopped. This is a contant problem. While I am happy that something has been done, it is clearly not enough. Everyday cars speed by with no intention of stopping. Something more needs to be done.

    There is a large pile of snow at the corner of Ling Wharf Drive and Hamilton St, right at the crosswalk. In order to see if cars are coming you have to step in to the lane of traffic. Not too safe when the cars are traveling at about 60 MPH. I'm sure this is on the list as the crews move through the city removing snow, but if not could you please have them remove. Thanks.

    There are several houses on Townsend that do not clear their sidewalks following snow storms. Can notices/warnings be sent to the homeowners? Some clear their walkway to the sidewalk but then stop at that.

    I cross Long Wharf Dr several times a day. There is a street level pedestrian crossing sign in the roadway that is mostly ignored. Would it be possible to get a flashing "Pedestrian Crossing Ahead" sign placed in each direction prior to the crosswalk? Cars do not stop, and if they do other cars fly around them. Most drivers are on their cell phones so to start to cross and hope that they stop is quite dangerous as they are not paying attention to the road. There are several companies whose employees park across the street at Sports Haven and work in the Maritime Center. This is a VERY dangerous crosswalk. There have been very close calls with drivers slamming on their brakes to avoid the cars that do stop, and close calls where people have been very close to getting hit by cars that fly around those that do stop. Thank you.
