A recent traffic study of Tenth Street in Ship Bottom, located just off the Causeway to Long Beach Island, recorded 11,024 motorists used the residential roadway between July 1 and July 20. That’s more than 4,500 additional vehicles than in a two-week period at the end of last summer.

The most current road study found 350 motorists exceeded the posted speed limit by 5 mph, borough officials said earlier this week.
