FREEHOLDERS UNVEIL 2020 COUNTY ROAD AND BRIDGE PROJECTS

32.6 MILES OF ROADS AND 17 COUNTY BRIDGES TARGETED FOR UPGRADES

The Morris County Board of Freeholders has unveiled an aggressive 2020 infrastructure action plan for the county, which includes nearly 40-miles of road paving and upgrades, and 17 county bridge replacement or rehabilitation projects in more than two dozen Morris County towns.

The county already has begun its 2020 bridge infrastructure projects, which will include replacement or rehabilitation of 17 bridges in Butler, Denville, Dover, Jefferson, Mendham Township, Morris Township, Netcong/Stanhope, Randolph, Rockaway Township, Washington Township, and Wharton.

Roads that have been the focus of numerous requests from motorists and officials for resurfacing will be addressed this spring and summer and include the following in Mendham:

Hilltop Road and Bernardsville Road in Mendham Borough and Mendham Township (a continuous road that changes name at the municipal border) is set for a spring or early summer upgrade. Utility work performed in 2019 resulted in uneven pavement. Resurfacing had to wait, however, until the area disturbed by the utility company project had completely settled.
