Rosemarie Koberle
Information officer
New Jersey Transit

Dear Ms. Koberle:

As a Jersey City resident, I am against the proposed Bergen Arches road. The additional road will bring in more traffic with more stalled cars. Jersey City's solution to the massive cars on the roads is light rail

I am a mother and a teacher. I know that Jersey City's foul air is the leading cause of asthma. Asthma is also the leading cause of deaths in teenagers. Asthma is also the number one reason why students are absent during the school year. It is a respiratory disease that is increasing in numbers.

My family, as well as my students, suffers with this dreadful disease.

Sincerely,

Yvonne Balcer
