NJDOT To Start East Main Street Railroad Replacement April 29

MANASQUAN—Starting April 29, The New Jersey Department of Transportation (NJDOT) will be doing road work at the East Main Street railroad crossing in Manasquan to close the road until May 6.

From 9 a.m to 3 p.m. every day, East Main Street will be closed and detoured in both directions at the railroad crossing between Colby and Wyckoff Avenues to remove the existing crossing and replace it with a new concrete one along with new asphalt approaches.

Drivers traveling eastbound on East Main Street will be directed to turn left on Taylor Avenue, then turn right onto Stockton Lake Boulevard, followed by a right turn onto Wyckoff Avenue back to East Main Street.

Drivers traveling westbound on East Main Street will have to turn right onto Wyckoff Avenue, turn left onto Stockton Lake Boulevard, then turn left onto Taylor Avenue to get back to East Main Street.

This upcoming roadwork is a federally-funded project and is a part of NJDOT’s railroad grade-crossing safety program, which repairs, upgrades, or removes approximately 30 crossings each year, statewide.
