Hearing on Route 92 EIS: June 8
On May 9th, the Army Corps of Engineers announced the date of the "public
scoping" hearing for the new Environmental Impact Statement for Route 92.
The hearing will be held at the Princeton Holiday Inn on Route 1, commencing
at 2pm (see calendar). In early February, the Corps released its decision
to require a full EIS for the controversial proposed 6.7-mile new limited
access toll highway that would connect the NJ Turnpike to Route 1 by
sending traffic through an undeveloped part of Middlesex County (MTR #256).
The Campaign received the public notice on May 15th. As of this writing,
many municipalities concerned about the impact of added traffic, especially
more trucks, in their communities seem not as yet to have been notified.
