Outreach
strategies include:
Commuter
Survey
Approximately
5,000 motorists participated
in the survey that the
New Jersey Department of
Transportation (NJDOT)
conducted in early 2013,
providing NJDOT with information
on their daily commutes
and valuable input on the
alternate routes and modes
they would consider using
once the northbound Pulaski
Skyway lanes are closed
for rehabilitation in March
2014.
The feedback
helped guide the Department's
ongoing efforts to create
additional capacity and
travel options, and to
minimize the inconvenience
that the closure will create
for motorists, businesses
and area residents.
A summary (pdf
411k) of the survey findings
includes some of the strategies
that NJDOT and partner
transportation agencies
are advancing to mitigate
the effects of the long-term
northbound lanes closure. |
