This vehicle was stuck awkwardly on the Mount Merino section of Route 9G this morning just south of Hudson—just at the point of the hill where cars pick up speed, and the sight lines are partially obscured by foliage. The drivers waved cars off frantically, and thank goodness successfully.
Right at the bottom of this steep hill is where Holcim and O&G, now with overt encouragement from the City of Hudson, want to have a couple hundred trucks cross 9G every day, without even the benefit of a traffic light. Police were using that spot this morning to check registrations; if the trucking plan goes forward, they’ll have to find a new spot.
