This alarming forecast has prompted calls for immediate action from the county to address the anticipated congestion.

Janowski urged the applicant to implement specific measures on their property to mitigate traffic impacts, suggesting the addition of tapers and diesel lanes similar to those proposed for Cherry Hill.
