    Volume 14, No. 4 Raritan-Millstone Heritage Alliance Fall 2012 www.raritanmillstone.org RARITAN RIVER AND BAY: PLACES TO VISIT -- HISTORIC MAP In the Raritan-Millstone Heritage Alliance Guide to Historic Sites in Central New Jersey, you can find several places from which to view one of our namesake rivers. In this issue we focus on that river, listing below entries from the Guidebook and on page three a 1921 schematic of the river. In addition, read about a new book on Sayreville, a Raritan River town. Raritan Bay Waterfront Park - Located along the South Amboy-Sayreville Raritan Bay waterfront. Access is from John F. O’Leary Boulevard in South Amboy. This county park, which opened in 1998, offers a magnifi- cent view of Raritan Bay and Lower New York Harbor from South Amboy’s ambitious waterfront housing redevelopment project. The park site comprises 136 acres, 86 of which are wetlands. The park presently offers a variety of athletic fields; Middlesex County’s memorial to the victims of the September 11, 2001 terrorist attack on New York City, featuring a large sculptured eagle and a quote from Daniel Webster; and an elevated three-tiered gazebo pavilion offering bayside views. The park continues into Sayreville for a mile along Raritan Bay, but trails have not yet been developed to provide access to much of this land. Tel: 732-745-3995. Hours: dawn to dusk. Admission: free. Old Bridge Waterfront Park - This beachfront park, which extends discontinuously for 1.3 miles along Raritan Bay, offers picnicking and boardwalk paths along much of the Old Bridge Township waterfront, developed in the 20th century as the summer resort communities of Laurence Harbor and Cliffwood Beach.

  • The New Jersey Exit 8A Area Transportation and Land Use Study
    The New Jersey Turnpike Exit 8A Area Transportation & Land Use Study For The New Jersey Department of Transportation By The Municipal Land Use Center @ The College of New Jersey Spring 2007 Second Printing Acknowledgements This study was funded by the New Jersey Department of Transportation (NJ DOT). Without its funding and support in other ways the study would not have been possible. It was then Assistant Commissioner Dennis Keck, who first suggested to me the need for this study now several years ago. The helpful insights provided by the NJ DOT project manager, Paul Truban, along with his supervisor, Talvin Davis, require special mention. We met regularly throughout the one-year period of developing this report. The many stakeholder participants who gave of their time, valuable information and wisdom, through individual interviews, the numerous stakeholder forums and even comments on earlier drafts of this report are too numerous to mention here, but should not go unnoticed. One person in this regard ought to be remembered – Mr. Joseph Montanti – who was a source of great encouragement at the outset, especially for me. Joe represented Monroe Township in those forums. Unfortunately, he passed away in April 2006, just as this project was getting underway. Dr. Wansoo Im, principal of Vertices, Inc., provided his expertise related to the electronic mapping and graphics. Always patient, his work is integral to this project. It is important to note that much of Dr. Im’s work is not immediately evident in this report. He created a tool that is now in the hands of the respective municipalities to help them improve their planning across municipal boundaries.

  • Report of the New Jersey Toll Road Consolidation Study Commission
    REPORT OF THE NEW JERSEY TOLL ROAD CONSOLIDATION STUDY COMMISSION Presented To The Hon. James E. McGreevey Pursuant to Executive Order No. 15 (2002) Paul P. Josephson, Chair Toll Road Consolidation Study Commission February 14, 2003 I. EXECUTIVE NARRATIVE The New Jersey Turnpike and the Garden State Parkway are more than roads. They are vital economic resources to our State, important to the quality of life in New Jersey, essential to directing smart growth and development and, perhaps most important, critical to providing safe passage to the millions of people who travel on them each day. To repair, improve, and enhance these vital arteries well into the future, the Commission recommends placing the Garden State Parkway under the auspices of the New Jersey Turnpike Authority ("NJTA"). The Commission further recommends restructuring over $300 million of E-ZPass debt issued on the faulty premise that violations could pay for the system. We also propose refinancing existing Turnpike and Parkway debt. These operational and financial measures will achieve an estimated $198 million in actual dollar savings ($108 million in present value) that can be devoted to sorely needed improvements that will reduce congestion and help keep each highway safe and sound. Joining the Turnpike and the Parkway into a single State agency will streamline government at a time of severe fiscal constraints, while maintaining the historic identities of each roadway. A consolidation of the two highways under one umbrella will achieve economies of scale; produce financial savings; obtain efficiencies in administration, management, and operations; permit a pooling of economic resources to fund essential capital projects; and implement more coordinated transportation planning.

  • Proposed Bridge Toll and PATCO Fare Schedules
    Proposed Bridge Toll and PATCO Fare Schedules July 2008 Dear DRPA and PATCO Customers: Thank you for your interest in the Delaware River Port Authority and Port Authority Transit Corporation. We appreciate the opportunity to present to you the proposed changes to the toll and fare structures. For the last several years, we have committed to cost-savings measures that have enabled us to operate without changes to our toll or fare structures. However, we now face a very challenging time as our future needs will require us to find additional revenue sources to fund our Capital Program which is critical to maintaining the safety, security and serviceability of our assets. We are confident that with the feedback received from you, our customers, we will be able to propose a plan to our Board of Commissioners that will enable us to face the challenges that lie ahead. We value your opinion and look forward to your comments and suggestions. Yours truly, John J. Matheussen Chief Executive Officer, Delaware River Port Authority President, Port Authority Transit Corporation The Delaware River Port Authority The Delaware River Port Authority of Pennsylvania and New Jersey is a regional transportation agency. DRPA’s lines of business, collectively called “the Authority,” operate under the motto “We Keep the Region Moving.” DRPA traces its roots back to 1919 when leaders from the two states began planning for a bridge across the Delaware River. That bridge, now known as the Benjamin Franklin Bridge, was once the longest suspension bridge in the world. Today, more than 80 years after its opening, the Benjamin Franklin Bridge remains a key transportation artery and a regional landmark.
