Cherry Hill, NJ – Cherry Hill residents are advised of significant traffic pattern changes due to emergency water main repair on Springdale Road, announced by Camden County Department of Public Works and New Jersey American Water.
The necessary repair work, set to commence on or about February 19, 2024, will take place between Springdale Farm Market and Justa Lane, ensuring that access to these facilities remains uninterrupted. However, the project will lead to notable road closures and traffic adjustments.
Northbound traffic on Springdale Road towards Route 70 will face a complete closure of both lanes at the repair site, with no passage beyond Justa Lane. Local access will be maintained between Kresson Road and Justa Lane for destinations including the JCC, Jewish Federation, Saltzman House, St. Thomas More Church, and nearby residential areas. A detour will be in place for those needing to travel beyond Justa Lane.
For those traveling southbound towards Kresson Road, one lane will remain open, allowing continued access along Springdale Road in that direction. The repair work is expected to last between one to two weeks, depending on the extent of repairs required once construction begins.
Despite the lane closures and traffic rerouting, American Water assures residents that water service will not be affected by the repairs. The Cherry Hill Police Department will provide ongoing updates, including a detour map, to assist motorists during this period.
