It’s amazing how fast New Jersey transit drive-through the CBD in Ridgewood. I’m surprised more people have been killed in Ridgewood. Because if anyone walks out in between cars in front of a bus they do not have the time to stop. The bus depot should be moved somewhere else safer I just don’t understand why it needs to be right in the middle of the CBD. Traffic engineer needs to come up with something
Fair Comment
But no one wants a bus depot idling on their block
Noise Pollution etc property value losses
