This proposal for a revision of the traffic pattern at Route 522 and Route 1 (encompassing Stouts Lane, as well) may sound confusing, but it can only make a poor intersection function more logically.
As things stand now, you can’t get from northbound Route 1 to the section of Route 522 known as Promenade Boulevard — a huge issue for residents of Princeton Gate and Princeton Walk. Nor is there an easy and logical way to get into the new Target shopping centere — unless you know the side entrance.
So adding a new reverse jughandle heading north and realigning Stouts just makes sense. Plus it will help with what is becoming an annoying traffic backup from Route 1 heading west that blocks the left-turn access onto Stouts.
Let’s hope the state agrees.
