ā¢ Passaic County Board of County Commissioners Breaks Ground on Dundee Island Park Pedestrian Bridge (thecliftontimes.com) ā A new pedestrian bridge at Dundee Island Park is moving forward, turning an old railroad span over the Passaic River into a key walking and biking link for Passaic residents. County, city, and state leaders say the project will better connect neighborhoods to trails, playgrounds, boat launches, and the waterfront without raising the county tax levy.
