HAMMONtON—According
to Mayor Stephen DiDonato, the
White Horse Pike (route 30)
repaving project is close to being
completed. Arawak Paving Company won the bid for the repaving
of the local corridor, and might
have been behind schedule by a
week or so due to other job commitments at the time.
DiDonato classified the original
timeline and the finishing results
as “pretty close” to what was expected.
“Most of the work was done
overnight with the paving, so it
didn’t tie up traffic too much. it
[the project] affected traffic a
little bit when they had to do
some curb work, they shut a
lane down. All and all, it wasn’t too, too bad,” DiDonato
said.
As of July 11, some finishing touches, such as lining
the roadway, were being
completed.
“they were lining and
completing aprons on friday. there may be some remaining punchlist items,”
DiDonato said
DiDonato said the road
repaving project on the
White Horse Pike was a
major boost to the uptown
district, and the entire town.
“that road, from the long
winter this year, was starting
to get pretty rough. it was a
much-needed improvement.
We thank NJDOt for their
commitment to maintaining
infrastructure on the White
Horse Pike,” DiDonato said.
