re: #15 Kragar

It would have been a minor story if it wasn’t affecting the nation’s busiest bridge and the world’s busiest bridge by vehicle traffic. Limiting access by any stretch is a big deal.

When the Port Authority shuts lanes, for any length of time, it issues alerts and warnings. It offers up alternative routes. Heck, even when there were emergency construction lane closures, it produced twitters, emails, and other warnings about bridge traffic and alerts.

Here? Nothing. Nothing but silence and static from top officials.

Let them eat static is essentially what Wildstein and Baroni offered to NJ officials wondering why the lane change brought Fort Lee to a standstill during the first week of school, the High Holy Days, and the days leading up to the anniversary of 9/11.
