What good is it to raise Sea Isle Blvd.?

Sea Isle City - What good is it to raise Sea Isle Blvd.? If the storm is bad enough to flood the road, you won't be going anywhere anyway. It is not too late to cancel this project, remove the barriers and repave it back to normal. This project is going to be a useless, wasteful headache for the next five years. When, not if, the first accident happens, how will you get rescue equipment to the scene? Forget about people who ride bikes on that road. There is absolutely no shoulder. Looks like someone is lining their pockets with this pet project.
