Warren County is asking residents to weigh in on plans to improve road safety and expand transportation options for pedestrians and cyclists. As part of its Connect Warren County initiative, county officials are working alongside the North Jersey Transportation Planning Authority (NJTPA) to develop a Complete Streets strategy and a Local Safety Action Plan (LSAP).
According to a recent press release, both efforts aim to make roads safer and more accessible for all users, including drivers, walkers, cyclists, delivery people and transit riders. The county will present draft recommendations at a public meeting on March 13, from 1:30 to 3 p.m., at the Warren County Library – Southwest Branch in Phillipsburg. Residents will have the opportunity to provide feedback on potential improvements.
Complete Streets policies focus on designing roadways that accommodate all travelers, while the LSAP will help identify and prioritize safety upgrades to reduce serious crashes. Both plans are expected to be finalized by June 30, 2025.
These initiatives are supported by NJTPA funding and guided by expert consultants. Officials emphasize that community input is key to shaping effective, locally driven solutions.
