Monmouth County To Host Meeting On Tennent Road Improvements Project

MANALAPAN, NJ — Monmouth County will host an online meeting on Wednesday from 6-8 p.m. to inform residents of a study being conducted to find ways to improve safety and congestion along Tennent Road from Devon Drive to Kensington Drive in Manalapan.

According to officials, the meeting and project implementation are in partnership with the NJ Department of Transportation, the North Jersey Transportation Planning Authority and the Federal Highway Administration.

“The purpose of the meeting is to inform the public about the existing conditions within the project corridor and solicit input and comment towards the project’s purpose and need statement,” the County said.

The purpose and need statement will later be used to guide the development of conceptual alternatives and guide the selection of the Preliminary Preferred Alternative (PPA), officials said.

At the meeting, the project team will present existing conditions, discuss deficiencies and constraints within the project limits and answer questions.

Following the meeting, presented materials will be available on the project website for review and public comment for 30 days.

Written comments will be accepted through Sept. 21, according to officials, and can be mailed to Community Involvement Facilitator Anthony Sytko or emailed to TennentRoad@gmail.com.
