Village Council hears presentation on establishing train horn ,”Quiet Zones”

>At the request of Village residents who live within earshot of two Ho-Ho-Kus grade level railroad crossings (Hollywood Avenue and Glenwood Road), the Village Council last night listened to an engineering consultant describe how train horn “quiet zones” could be established. However, Council members seemed rather uninterested in moving beyond the listening stage after learning that expenses associated with implementation of a federally approved plan could cost between $200K – $1.2 million. So for now, this proposal seems dead in the water.
