“NJDOT’s Route 130 Burlington County resurfacing project will improve safety and extend the life of the roadway,” said Commissioner Dilts.

NJDOT will mill and pave Route 130 north and south through June 19, 2009. The state-funded project will resurface all lanes of the roadway from north of Chestnut Hill Road to Bridgeboro Road in Delran, and all northbound lanes from north of Bridgeboro Road to Levittown Parkway in Willingboro. NJDOT will resurface portions of the left, center and right lanes of Route 130 northbound in Burlington City from Beverly Road to Wood Street. In addition, NJDOT will resurface portions of the left, center and right lanes of Route 130 southbound in Burlington City from Assiscunk Creek to Washington Avenue and in Edgewater Park and Delanco from south of Mount Holly Road to Rancocas Creek.

Lane closures may occur between 8 p.m. and 6 a.m. Monday through Friday. At least one lane will remain open in each direction at all times during construction.

NJDOT will use portable Variable Messaging Signs to inform motorists of traffic pattern changes. Construction information and real-time traffic updates are available at www.511nj.org.
