First opened 14 years ago, the New Jersey park will close its doors forever in early November.
The state's attorney general made the statement during a legislative meeting in Trenton, but it has touched off a debate in Leonia over who has the right to control access to local roadways.
Leonia, New Jersey, a town near the George Washington Bridge, has started issuing $200 tickets to drivers trying to get to and from New York City during rush hours.
Leonia will close off access to local streets during the morning and afternoon rush hours. Violators could face a $200 fine.
Officials say it's all because popular traffic apps steer traffic onto Leonia roads whenever there is a major traffic delay heading to the George Washington Bridge.
