ASBURY PARK RESIDENTS *AND ANYONE WHO TRAVELS IN AP*!OPPOSE RR CROSSING CLOSURES!Email apcompletestreets@gmail.com today!🚫NJDOT/NJTransit is proposing permanent railroad grade crossing closures in Asbury Park - the first closure is slated for 6th Avenue. (5th Ave and 1st Ave are also on the list). 🚫DOT is open to hearing from residents who oppose the closure. 🚫Many city committees and commissions are in agreement not to close the 6th Avenue grade crossing. I have been in touch with the city, NJDOT, Senator Vin Gopal's office (he has already brought in his team to hear concerns). 🚫Please email apcompletestreets@gmail.com. I will compile the emails, which I would like to send it out as soon as possible. 🚫Asbury Park Complete Streets Coalition believes that it's of the utmost importance to keep east-west routes open, connecting our schools, recreation areas, waterways, and places of business. 🚫Closing the 6th Ave. grade crossing::-will impede emergency vehicles and police from geitng to calls-will possibly result in more traffic congestion on neighboring streets, Sunset, 5th, 4th And 3rd, and more traffic backed up at those grade crossings. - will cause a detour to access AP High Schoool and recreation fields (used for HS, little league, and other sports) -will cause a detour to access to the Culinary Arts Center-will cause a detour to access walking to businesses, Sunset Park, and the rest of the city- will negatively affect residents in the residential housing development (Holly House Apts)-will adversely people who walk and roll Please email your concerns about this closure, or if you have questions to: apcompletestreets@gmail.comLet's maintain equitable and safe access through Asbury Park for all!The study on NJ Transit grade crossing closures: ...
