I'm 50. Okay, in a little over a month I'll be 50. I'm in Jersey. What part are you from? I live in Iselin, right by Edison and Metro Park train station.
Metro Park is a central station that is jammed in the morning, and at night there's a tunnel that hundreds crawl through during rush hour. Of course they're on their cells, blackberries, reading books... It can take 5 minutes to get down the stairs and down the tunnel, that should take less then a minute.
There was reconstruction going on that took years to complete. Do you think they'd have widen the tunnel or built a second one? Or maybe an overhead walkway... NO. They put in colored lights and some crumby murals.
But they did raise monthly fares from $217 to $270. Gotta love NJTransit.
