Cape May Beach - A consultant was hired to study Routes 55, 47 and 347, and to draft a “purpose and needs statement.” Freeholder Thornton said the action was taken in “recognition of the information submitted about the recent deaths and injuries that have taken place” on the three highways that are heavily used and are often bumper-to-bumper on summer weekends. Really? Everyone knows that to be true. You don't need a consultant to confirm it.
