Description:
Two sanitary landfills sit between I-295 and Rt. 42, just off the Creek
Road interchange, in Bellmawr Borough's industrial corridor. After completion
of a new direct connection between I-295 and Route 42 within the next few
years, these landfills and several nearby industrial tracts will be drawn
within a unique triangular junction of regional freeways. Adjacent industrial
sites in Bellmawr and Deptford point to the site's accessibility to regional
markets and local labor. Currently, PATCO is studying whether its Glassboro
Line should be extended down Route 42's grass median. Bellmawr is exploring
designation of the landfills and the triangle for redevelopment as a transit
village. Bellmawr Borough is one of the County's more business-friendly
communities.
