To the Editor:
Forty years ago, the lane that ran behind the bar was mostly known to locals, with few homes and small campgrounds. It provided a nice alternative to Route 9, especially in the busy summer months.
Today, the street is lined with custom homes, new and expanded campgrounds, and upscale developments on both sides of the road. We cannot stress enough that it is a “highly populated residential area!”
Pedestrian and bike traffic have increased. Cars, trucks, heavy equipment vehicles and school buses are a common sight!
The speed limit on the newly paved “Corsons Tavern Speedway” needs to be lowered to 35 mph.
We are asking the county and Upper Township officials to act now. It is our families and children who are at risk!
It is interesting to note: With fewer homes, developments and campgrounds, Stagecoach Road, also a county road, has a double yellow line and a 35-mph speed limit for its entire length!
