Residents Can Submit Point Boro Bike Lane Feedback

After presenting concepts such as eliminating a lane of traffic on Route 88 bridge in order to add bike lanes there, the firm who offered up those and other ideas continue to welcome feedback on the plan.

The feedback will be folded into a final presentation on what Point Pleasant Borough should do to improve pedestrian and bicycle traffic around the borough. The Borough Council would receive the presentation for voting on or amending some time in January.

Point Pleasant Borough Residents were introduced to traffic change suggestions from the firm Parsons Brinckerhoff, who prepared the concepts after studying the borough and meeting with a local steering committee since June. The concepts were presented to the public at Ocean Road Elementary School, gathering more local input before a final report is presented to borough council in January.

Concept plans to improve Point Pleasant Borough's pedestrian and bicycle traffic could include reconfiguring Route 88 bridge lanes, adding curbs and sidewalks to borough thorofares, and creating one-way streets near schools.

To submit feedback on the plan, contact Steve Chiaramonte at: chiaramonte@pbworld.com
