Honestly kudos to the township for scheduling this during yom tov to ease the disruption to local residents. As well as off peak traffic patterns, being that there’s no school either way.

We need more critical thinking like this, when it comes to infrastructure projects throughout town. On how to best minimize the effect on locals.

The pic is off. They put the Faraday label on the tracks. It should actually be on the road over to the left.

They might be building duplexes on part of the road as the township decided the full rd is not needed
