I don't see a lot of people get off the train and head off in a direction other than Avalon, Pulte and Somerset. It may be because riders from other nearby areas have a set commute by bus and there haven't switched. My best guess is that traffic is at 20-25% of Rutherford and ~300-350 commuters a day.Thanks for the estimate. Very much appreciated.
