NEWARK, NJ - Residents tomorrow can learn about recommended transportation improvements in the city's Downtown and give input about the plan.

The North Jersey Transportation Planning Authority is working with the city on the Newark Downtown Circulation Improvement Study, which plans to make streets safer and easier for pedestrians, bicyclists, drivers and those who use public transportation.

The study will collect and analyze data on parking volume, major roadways and Penn Station circulation. Some of the recommendations include the Halsey Street pedestrian plaza, a Lincoln Park extension and bicycle lanes for Raymond Boulevard.

The meeting will be held from 6:30 to 8:30 p.m. Tuesday at city hall. Light refreshments will be served.
