[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Saying that Route 3 should be the hard boundary between the Arundel and Crofton clusters is as ridiculous as saying that Route 2 should be the hard boundary between the Severna Park and Broadneck clusters. Could you imagine kids living as north as Berrywoood being bused to Broadneck? Or kids living near the Severn River bridge being bused to Broadneck?[/quote]

It IS the boundary except for River Walk. Why should that neighborhood be the exception?[/quote]

Because kids in Riverwalk have to use Route 3 to get to any high school they attend regardless of whether it’s Arundel or Crofton. Why should they go to a school that’s 14 minutes away (Arundel) vs 8 minutes away (Crofton)?  Riverwalk students would have to be on Route 3 for even longer if they go to Arundel vs Crofton. It almost seems pathetic and cruel.

Also, Route 3 wasn’t the boundary between Crofton and Arundel until Crofton High opened. Waugh Chapel communities, Two Rivers, and Forks of Patuxent all used to attend the Crofton feeder. [/quote]

You can’t get to anywhere from River Walk without getting on route 3. People who live there accept the risks of Route 3 as part of living there. [b]They’re getting on route 3 no matter what, but that isn’t true of the rest of Crofton. It isn’t fair to put Nantucket kids onto Route 3 unnecessarily.[/b][/quote]

Do you think the Nantucket kids are going to have to hitch hike down Route 3 or something?  What exactly isn't fair about having to drive on a bigger road than a smaller one?[/quote]
