Tree Trimming Closes Portion of Route 206 This Week

Beginning Monday, April 1 and continuing until Friday, April 5, a tree maintenance project will take place along Route 206 between Ewing Street and Herrontown Road.

Each day between 9 a.m. and 3 p.m., Route 206 will be closed to car and light truck traffic. Large trucks will be held in a staging area on either end of the work area and allowed to pass at intervals. 

Detours will be posted directing both north and southbound traffic onto Mt Lucas Road. 

This work is being conducted in response to power outages that have affected thousands of residents during storms over the past year.  

The project is being conducted by Princeton in conjunction with the New Jersey Department of Transportation, and PSE&G.
