Middlesex County Seeks Public Input On Transportation Plan Update

MIDDLESEX COUTNY, NJ — Have thoughts about traffic, road safety or bus service in South Brunswick and beyond? Middlesex County wants to hear them.

The county is updating its Transportation and Mobility Plan, which will guide how it makes travel “safer, easier, and more reliable for everyone,” according to a flyer announcing the effort. The first public meeting on the update is set for Tuesday, Oct. 27, from 6 to 8 p.m. at Middlesex College in Edison.

“No matter how you travel through Middlesex County, your opinion matters,” the flyer says.

The updated plan will help guide future transportation investments and improvements across the county, officials said. It will include “actionable recommendations and an implementation framework to maintain a safe, efficient, and accessible transportation system,” according to the county.

At the meeting, residents can learn what the plan will cover and how it will be developed. They can also share what’s working and what isn’t when they travel around the county, and tell planners what matters most to them, “whether that’s safety, traffic, public transit—or something else,” the flyer says.

The meeting will be held in Cafeteria C of the College Center at Middlesex College, 2600 Woodbridge Ave., Edison. Attendees should park in lots 1, 2, 3 or 4. The college can also be reached on NJ Transit bus routes 813 and 814, using the Middlesex County College stop.

Pre-registration for the in-person session is encouraged but not required. Residents can sign up at MiddlesexTMPublicMeeting1.eventbrite.com.

Those who can’t attend in person can join a virtual version of the meeting on Zoom on Tuesday, Nov. 10, from 6 to 8 p.m. Registration for the virtual session is available at itl.ink/TransportationMobilityVirtualMeeting.

Language assistance and accessibility accommodations are available on request through the plan team at planning@co.middlesex.nj.us.
