Bergen County Town Sued Over Road Rules Against Non-Residents

Citing years of unimaginable traffic nightmares, Leonia officials enacted a ban on motorists who are not residents of the borough from using side streets as shortcuts to and from the George Washington Bridge.

But attorney Jacqueline Rosa filed a complaint in Bergen County Superior Court challenging the legality of the ban. She said the ban not only stops cars from getting to the bridge, it also restricts people going about their everyday business shopping in the town or bring their kids to school and more.
