Princeton Council Puts Hold on Tour Bus Discussion

Princeton Council delayed a discussion on how to handle tour buses that have come to Princeton more frequently the last few years, Planet Princeton reports.

Council was to consider bus parking zones on Nassau Street near the intersection with Witherspoon Street, according to the report.

Some officials and Princeton University officials expressed concern that the buses idle while tourists shop in the downtown, according to the report.

A rash of questions from council members and last minute changes resulted in the delay discussing the issue, according to the Princeton Packet.

Mayor Liz Lempert said the decision council ultimately reaches may be different than the one it was to consider Monday night, according to the report.

Princeton’s next council meeting is scheduled for Monday night, May 18, 7 p.m.
