Set to begin summer 2021, safety measures for people walking and riding bikes will be focused on 3 main areas of resident concern:
Traffic Calming on 3rd and 4th Avenues – What is traffic calming?
New 3rd Avenue Bike Lanes – How bike lanes make a city safer.
Traffic Signal Upgrade on 3rd Avenue at Pine Street – Do traffic signals keep us safer?
“Curbing speeding in neighborhoods has always been one of my priorities,” said Deputy Mayor Amy Quinn.

The City of Asbury Park has been authorized by the New Jersey Department of Transportation (NJDOT) to begin design work on traffic calming measures for 3rd and 4th Avenues. The improvements are funded by $500,000 in federal grants under the Safe Routes to School (SRTS) program in partnership with the North Jersey Transportation Planning Authority (NJTPA).
