I guess the traffic on Rt. 35 will be heavy that day. Other routes would be better suited, like starting at Sears or even Thompson School.
First they stop us from going to work by jamming up the GW Bridge. Now they will stop us from doing our weekly shopping by jamming up Rt. 35.
Does the DOT know that Middletown plans to shut down a State Highway to allow community groups, schools, families and businesses to parade across it? Sounds like the republicans are planning another traffic jam!
The shut down won't be the first time. There was a parade along #35 for the bi-cenntinal and it was a long long one. I think it started around sears and went past town hall and where it ended?? I remember it well because my daughter marched with the brownies and my son with the little league.
