BRICK-Mayor John Ducey during his Facebook Live session today said street paving in the area of Herbertsville Road near the numbered streets has been delayed and told us why. The streets were to be paved by the township, but because of an upcoming New Jersey Natural Gas Pipeline, Ducey and his administration put the paving on hold.
Ducey said the township didn’t want to pave the roads just yet because they will be torn up in the near future for the utility work.
Ducey added that even though the township passed an ordinance that required utilities to repave the entire road after construction, the new gas line permit was approved before the ordinance was adopted, so the town will commence paving after the utility lines are installed.
