Route 202 traffic light work may begin after fatal Branchburg crash

BRANCHBURG – The state Department of Transportation may begin work this week to install a traffic signal at the intersection of Route 202 and Holland Brook Road . Assemblywoman Mitchelle Drulis, D-Somerset, said in a Facebook post that the DOT also will conduct "a comprehensive review of traffic and crash data throughout the 202 corridor in Branchburg to determine where additional safety improvements are needed." The announcement came after a 32-year-old Branchburg man died Oct. 26 when a tractor-trailer collided with a Ford sedan at Route 202 and Holland Brook Road , causing the Ford to burst into flames. Authorities have not released the victim's identity. Fatal Route 202 crash prompts calls for safety improvements In the wake of the fatal crash, Mayor James Schworn called on the DOT to "immediately close" every unsignalized Route 202 intersection in the township . In an open letter to residents, Schworn said the township has "received a positive response and have been advised that DOT is actively working toward a solution." While many residents have suggested immediately closing the intersection, Schworn said doing so without a broader traffic safety review could create other problems.

MTA saw record-high ridership over Halloween, marathon weekend in NYC — but straphangers have complaints

The Metropolitan Transportation Authority saw a record-breaking surge of riders over Halloween and New York City Marathon weekend — but many fed-up straphangers complained of dangerously crowded platforms and lengthy delays. Some 3.14 million riders took the subway Sunday, marking an all-time ridership high for the first day of the week and shattering last year’s record by 11%, Governor Kathy Hochul and the MTA announced Monday. Similarly, the day before, on Halloween, straphangers smashed the previous post-pandemic Saturday record with 3.59 million riders, marking the most on a single Saturday since 2016. Roughly 3.59 million straphangers rode the subway on Halloween Saturday. Zuma / SplashNews.com Even before the Big Apple’s mammoth weekend, the subway carried a whopping 4.72 million passengers on a record-shattering Thursday, marking the highest single-day ridership since the pandemic with a 9.7% increase in ridership compared to the same day last year. “From the streets to the subways, New Yorkers were on the move this weekend in record numbers,” Hochul said in a press release. MTA bus-fare retreat could doom all NYC public transit “The subway is the lifeblood of our city and from Halloween to the marathon, the major events that make New York special simply

How the congestion-toll scam hides behind the fantasy of a carless city

Congestion pricing is a huge failure if you look at its stated goals, but a brilliant ploy to rob the public by appealing to the war on cars. Despite the mutual back-patting from Gov. Kathy Hochul and her MTA minions, traffic is no faster and the air is no cleaner since the city started tolling cars and trucks in much of Manhattan. It has raised money, yielding the MTA about $750 million this year, almost covering the lost revenue from bus and subway fare evasion. So if picking the pockets of working people is a win, then it’s going gangbusters. Dem pol blames congestion pricing for breakup after beau couldn’t afford toll — as she rips Hochul-backed tax But the warm-and-fuzzy crowd feels like the tolls are a win for the environment and so on, and feelings are what matter, right? Hence, too, the push to redesign the city to make driving a car as expensive and inconvenient as possible. Hochul just confessed: She’ll give Mamdani his tax hikes next year Bicycles account for about 1% of all commuting, but romantics feel they’ll become New Yorkers’ most popular option if we’re relentless enough in expanding mostly-empty bike lanes — and
