No, not gonna buy that. If there are any "I, me, my people" involved in this situation, it is those vocal residents of the Oak Forest Drive area who have complained about the activities on that street and coerced a questionable government action. Oak Forest is not the only street accessed via this route. There are also about a dozen side streets and scores of homes that are being inconvenienced by the actions of their neighbors.
It's possible that original residents of this area thought that their new homes, across a obviously major thoroughfare from the polo fields, softball diamonds, and Saddle Brook rec center and between two executive golf courses and a major country club were going to remain in an isolated paradise. But somehow, I'll bet these same people were clamoring for the construction of shopping facilities closer than way up on 27/441.
No one wants changes that will make their home less appealing to themselves. When you have a lovely view, you don't want a house built in the way. However, unless you own the land involved or have a legal commitment regarding its use, you've no guarantees. Life's a :edit: . It's the same with this traffic situation. You can do various things to ameliorate the situation, but only within the rules of the community.
