Was like that last night around this time too. I'm not sure if there's new construction or something, but it was brutal.

I've noticed a huge uptick in Tonelle Ave traffic corresponding to the start of a pilot iniative to make St. Paul's a one-way (i.e. closed to Eastbound traffic). Correlation=/=causation, but I can't imagine it's helping things at all.

Just your usual jersey city mongos who don’t work or leave home until 4-5pm and cause commotion on the roads

Oh shit… that’s still closed?

I had to go from downtown to 440 and it was bumper to bumper the whole way. The entire fucking way. It didn’t cross my mind that was fallout from that crash.

Devils intersection living up to its name too.

So much regrets I didn’t run that errand on Monday. I figured I was being smart doing it today and not tomorrow with more holiday traffic. [facepalm]

It’s called Tonelle Ave ; US 1-9 rush hour traffic . Rush hour stopped being an hour many years ago . You are also in one of the most densely populated areas in the country with poor snd outdated infrastructure.

1-9 is a nightmare. Probably was great when Jersey City wasn’t popular and only trucks were using it

I think it actually just reopened. I don’t see the closure anymore on the map and traffic is gone

Which devils intersection? There’s quite a few of them but none are as bad as the Tonnelle Circle of hell.

Yeah traffic is gonna be worse than ever for the next month and a half. More cars on the road plus terrible impatient drivers makes it a miserable commute for all modes of transport

Don’t think so. Skyway was a nightmare coming from the west around 6pm but cleared right up at the Tonelle exit, and Lower-139 was smooth sailing all the way to the lights before the tunnel.

also jfk blvd and lake st has construction that is also bad. Lots of drivers rerouting to jfk blvd which also has traffic and vice versa

Idk why this is being downvoted. Every single word you said was true. Not an ounce of fat on your comment. Every time I leave my apartment and hit that intersection I'm like "oh that's right I'm suffocating here and need to go move to the desert"

probably cause OP said “worse than usual”, implying they are aware it’s bad all the time but this time it was worse, so being condescending is a poor response.
