Martin Robins, the director emeritus of the Voorhees Transportation Center at Rutgers, says the governor’s decision to list all the transportation projects that are being suspended is a huge shock.

“It finally became evident how much there is to do and how silent the governor has been about these needs and how derelict I think the executive branch has been in not making the public aware of how much there is on the agenda.”
