Engineering Update: Potholes, Sidewalks and Road Paving

When a roadway has a pothole, or a sidewalk is uneven, the Township will temporarily repair the condition as soon as possible. However, with 530 lane miles of roadways and 115 miles of sidewalk to maintain, Public Works is doing all they can to assist every resident with their roadway and sidewalk repairs.

All road and sidewalk conditions need to be brought to the attention of Public Works. If a roadway is not scheduled for full repaving, repairs can be completed by Public Works until a road is fully funded for repaving.  The Engineering Department does not schedule maintenance repairs.

The Township Committee contracted with an independent consultant to electronically review and rank all 530 lane miles of roadways within the Township. The list of roads to be repaved will be released after the Yearly Capital Budget is approved by the Township Committee. If repaving is approved, the Engineering Department will then administer the bidding process and inspection of the repaving.
