NJDOT roundabout project

A 43-year resident of 36 years on Kenneth Avenue begged the council to fight the roundabout, saying it would demolish his home of 36 years and fragment the neighborhood; cited a petition with over 2,600 signatures.

Thanked the council for the DOT resolution, argued double roundabouts are for moving high traffic volumes not calming, asked about missing police speed details on Bordentown Avenue, and suggested lowering the speed limit to 25-30 mph.

Described a pickup truck passing two cars on Bordentown Avenue, called the situation a nightmare, and asked that ideas like lower speed limits and truck restrictions be tested before billions are spent.

Worried two lanes merging into one near bus stops without crosswalks or sidewalks will endanger students waiting for school buses; asked police to observe her driveway during morning drop-off.

Suggested petitioning Trenton for an NJ Transit bus route on Bordentown Avenue as a comprehensive alternative that would cut car traffic without a billion-dollar infrastructure project.
