Bergenfield NJ, pedestrian safety advocate Frank Geraghty revisited Veterans Plaza and West Main street in Bergenfield to check out an old serious traffic problem.
Frank Geraghty said , “Recently, I went to visit Bergenfield to check out an old serious traffic problem which I previously addressed some time ago to the town and the DOT, unfortunately the problem still exists at Veterans Plaza and West Main street, south bound traffic making a left turn east from Veterans Plaza into West Main street have a big problem making left turn because motorists cannot see fast moving traffic approaching from their left from West Main street because of a pine tree and bushes blocking their view located next to post office. Local trucks do not turn left there because they do not have the power or speed to make that turn quickly. One pedestrian joked “There are less accidents at that turn recently because most local traffic avoid that horrible turn”. My longtime VERY CONTROVERSIAL SOLUTION IS TO REMOVE THE PINE TREE and bushes from corner. This would give back a safe intersection to Bergenfield tax paying motorists. ”
way too many dangerous corners here with overgrown bushes
how come no action
It’s difficult to make a left turn onto Washington av from any intersecting road. Leave the tree alone. Is frank looking for some cushy govt job?
You’ll never be able to convince one of these leftist environmentalists to remove a tree. So, what is needed is some old-school political BALLS to just cut the stupid thing down, and be done with it. At one time, there would not even be a question about it. Now we need a study, position papers, a thorough analysis, traffic studies, accident analysis, public polling, etc. ad nauseam. Just do it and even these kookie lefties will forget about it is a week, if that. Jesus, DO YOUR JOB.
Human Lives mean NOTHING to Liberal Democrats.
Look at ANY of their policies (starting with abortion)
Neat. Now do capital punishment.
