Rt 9 is a highway. Therefore, it makes sense to build as many houses and developments as possible right next to Rt 9, so that adults and children alike can walk on the highway and cross Rt 9 to go to shul and to school.
The more I think about it, the more sense it makes. Whoever thought up this great idea of building houses and developments on a great highway like Rt 9 should be awarded a Nobel Ingenuity Prize.

That area of Rt 9 is cloaked in near-total darkness. Maybe we can Petittion the State to add more street lights in that area. Is there a name for Tehillim ? DB.
How ironic – LPD is working so hard to promote traffic-pedestrian safety & this guy gets hit. Nebech. Name for tehillim ?
lets see no trouble over pass over now pass over is done there is a pedestrian, over turned vehicle. Let me guess there is no correlation between the holiday and the type of driving.
Lets blame the dark roads it is easier to point fingers to others than to ourselves.
there shouldnt be bus stops on main streets in lakewood due to dangers
