When curbing is installed across your driveway, access to your driveway will be prohibited for the next 48 hours.

NEW JERSEY AMERICAN WATER MAIN AND SERVICES IMPROVEMENT WORK

On Monday, July 13th, and through the rest of the week, weather permitting, the New Jersey America Water (NJAW) company contractor, CRJ Construction, plans to begin the replacement of house water services and installation/replacement of fire hydrants within the public right-of-way between Jefferson Road and Ewing Street. To provide for this work, Mount Lucas Road will be closed from Ewing Street to Jefferson Road during working hours of 7 am to 5 pm. The switchover to the new house water service will require shut-off of the water for approximately 15 minutes. The switchover will be done one house at a time and will take place between the hours of 9 am and 3 pm. The contractor will knock on your door prior to shutting the water off to your house and after the switchover is complete.

Should inclement weather occur, the work will proceed the following business day. Mount Lucas Road will reopen at the end of each work day. Residents are advised to use caution when driving within the road closure area and allow additional time for travel. Provisions will be made for emergency services vehicles and for continued services such as brush collection, mail delivery, garbage and recycling pick-up.
