Pretty sure the state paid for and did the bridge across Jersey Ave

Only because they want to use that as an alternate route while they build the stupid fucking extension. They are going to make Grand St and Marin incredibly dangerous when they inevitably have to close major portions of 78.

On the bright side I assume traffic on those streets will be traveling at 0.5 mph, which will hopefully limit the danger

I'd put money down that someone going from Grand onto Jersey taking a left hits someone going to or leaving the hospital. I'd also be willing to bet that a car will be hit by or hit the light rail trying to speed through a red on Jersey Ave.

The $13M for the bridge came from both the City and the Turnpike Authority. $10M came from the NJTA
