Here we go again, another proponent of recreating passenger rail service on the old tracks south of Camden has just been heard from. This time it is yet another state agency no one ever heard of named the \”Office of Smart Growth.\” According to a recent article in the Gloucester County Times \” . . their job is to provide smart growth in a state that has a minimum amount of open space.\” Where was this group when we needed them, before the excessive and rampant growth took place?
Apparently they have just become aware of the most recent of the studies by the Delaware River Port Authority (DRPA), and there have been many, that resulted in recommendations for passenger rail routes down the rights-of-way of routes 42 and 55 or on the old existing rails from Woodbury to Glassboro and possibly beyond.
