Описание: I walked Route 22 in Union, NJ—dodging traffic, uncovering abandoned buildings, and finding a hidden tunnel under the highway. Is this road in decay? And what’s up with that eerie shuttle? Let’s explore."

Full Description:
*"Route 22 is one of the busiest highways in New Jersey… but what’s hiding beneath it? I set out to explore its abandoned past, crossing one of the most dangerous pedestrian routes, discovering eerie ruins, and venturing inside a dark underground tunnel.

My adventure starts at the legendary P.C. Richard ship, navigating the decayed retail landscape, where businesses seem to disappear overnight. What’s driving this decline? Then, I test the county’s free shuttle—does anyone even use it?

Things get even stranger when I stumble upon a mysterious tunnel running beneath Route 22. Is it safe to enter? Finally, I make my way to the abandoned Clinton Manor, a former banquet hall now left to rot. Snow starts falling, adding to the eerie vibe.

Why is Route 22 so dangerous? What’s lurking underground? And why is this once-thriving highway falling apart? Join me as I uncover the truth!"*
