β€’ Self-Storage Facility Application on Milltown Road Speaks to Potential for Increase in Units (tapinto.net) β€” A proposed four-story self-storage facility at 360 Milltown Road in Bridgewater could hold up to 630 units, far more than initially discussed, and neighbors near Bradley Gardens, Route 22, and North Branch Park may feel the traffic effects. After three hours of testimony on zoning, traffic, and design concerns, the township board continued the application to Nov. 10 for further review.
