Yes ma'am!!! Finally right?!?!

They're starting sometime this year. Before the summer I believe and it's gonna be awhile before that entire thing is done. Widening right after the mall going south and somewhere going north too ofc.

It's needed. Been needed for decades so while they do what they need to do ....... we'll be in traffic jam Hell?!

We used to live in the area. Probably less than a mile behind the Starbucks going North and I cannot tell you how relieved we are that we no longer live there.

We still need to commute back and forth in that entire exchange of rt 4 and rt 17 but not necessarily going south into the repair area. I'm just weary that the residual backup that we'll see in the mornings while they do construction.

I'm not where near there in the afternoon or during the evening rush hour but I'm sure it'll be just as bad.

I'll pray do us both.

Lifelong Paramus resident here and I refuse to go that way unless I absolutely have to. It’s horrendous.

There's the back roads ofc. Being a life long Paramus resident you know there's Paramus Rd or Fairvew Ave that kinda runs parallel to rt 17 so you may avoid that area.

My son attends the private school there in Paramus so I have to head towards that mess every morning regardless. We'll all just need to be patient and understand that it's for the better ofc
