What was the study area for traffic impacts?
Two study areas were defined for the analysis of potential traffic impacts. One regional traffic study area included the major roadways in a 28-county area in New Jersey, New York and Connecticut. The other was a more corridor-specific study area surrounding the Goethals Bridge that included communities like Elizabeth, Union, Woodbridge, Perth Amboy, and Jersey City, in New Jersey, and Staten Island, Brooklyn, and Manhattan, in New York.
