Pemberton Avenue closure update


I noticed this detour sign on Randolph Road for
the first time on Thursday (12/12).



Map shows location of bridge repairs (and also
indicates where Pemberton Avenue starts).



 
When barricades went up in Cedar Brook Park a couple of weeks ago preventing through traffic, Plainfield social media erupted with questions.

No one seemed to know what was going on.

Here's an update based on answers to some questions I asked --


  • The bridge over the Cedar Brook, which runs through the eponymously named park, is being replaced by the County, which is responsible for the roadway between the beginning of Pemberton Avenue and Park Avenue.


  • The work is estimated to take several months and may not be completed until the spring of 2020.


  • Folks who use this as a direct route to Park Avenue should plan alternate routes. Detour signs have popped up on Randolph Road.
Users of the sports fields can still get in from Park Avenue to the parking lots and Arlington Avenue extension.

The Shakespeare Garden is accessible from Rose Street.
