We are still predicting all beach access and locker and mat placement will be in place before July 1st.  We appreciate your ability to adapt for a few weeks for this important project.  Safety First!

Project #2 Completing the “Phase II” Sewer project. 

The curbing and apron work is progressing on schedule; and we are still working with a revised completion date- the first week of June.  We have completed the work for Third and  Ocean Avenues; and a number of the side-streets.   Although we have moved to Fourth Avenue for concrete work, we don’t want to start milling and paving if we cannot complete that task this week- to minimize disruption over the Memorial Day weekend.   Additionally, equipment will be off the streets for the most part- a plus.  The key reason for the elongation of time to complete is the extent of the concrete work.  We will resume early next week and complete the project shortly thereafter.  Although disappointing to us, we are committed to delivering the best product we can; and that is new curbs, driveway aprons, and ADA compliant corners- along with newly paved roads! Landscaping will occur right after paving is complete.

Project #3 Walking Bridge

The walking bridge on Lake Terrace Drive between Bradley Beach and Ocean Grove- receiving a needed facelift.  We received and installed the new wire guards that complemented the wooden railings.  This style is like the construction on the new pier in Ocean Grove.  We are CO M P L E T E!   We are planning a “ribbon cutting” in the coming weeks- hope you can attend!

I had the opportunity on Tuesday to meet with some leaders from the BB Elementary School.  The SOLE SISTERS are a running club formed last year and are very enthusiastic about this activity!  Love the runners!!

We are finishing beach preparations.  We added 3 disabled lockers at each beach and a few other enhancements to help the disabled have a great beach experience.  We hope this will be a success.
