Road Work On These Bloomfield Streets Will Continue Through December, Town Says

BLOOMFIELD, NJ — Road construction is expected to impact traffic on several Bloomfield streets through the month of December, local public safety officials announced Wednesday.

According to a township advisory, the road work will affect Spring Street, Cottage Place, Division Street and East Almira Street.

Here’s what to expect, the advisory says:

“As part of the township’s on-going roadway program, Spring Street from James Street to the dead end is currently under construction, including new curbing, drainage pipe, milling and resurfacing. This work will also include milling and paving of Cottage Place as the project progresses. While Spring Street and Cottage Place should remain partially opened and passable during most phases of this work, residents of this area may experience delays. The gates located at the dead-end of Spring Street will be opened to allow residents to exit onto Belleville Avenue through the Oaks Pond Apartments parking area.”

Bloomfield police officers will be present to assist residents as needed.

Work hours will be Monday through Friday, from 7 a.m. to 3:30 p.m., when weather permits.

“This work should continue through the remainder of December or until the weather becomes unfavorable for construction,” the advisory said.
