SOUTH BRUNSWICK TO BEGIN ROADWAY IMPROVEMENTS ON DUNDEE ROAD (STILLWELL ROAD TO 27 DUNDEE) AND RITTER ROAD
Construction scheduled to begin April 27; project will include major infrastructure and roadway upgrades
SOUTH BRUNSWICK, NJ — South Brunswick Township will begin comprehensive roadway improvements on Dundee Road and Ritter Road today, Monday, April 27, 2026, weather permitting. Work will begin on Ritter Road. The Township was awarded $386,260 in NJDOT Municipal Aid grant funding for this project.
Residents were notified last week of the upcoming construction.
This Township-led project reflects continued investment in maintaining and improving critical infrastructure, including upgrades to sanitary sewer systems, potable water mains, drainage facilities, and full roadway reconstruction.
Construction will take place Monday through Friday between 7:00 AM and 5:00 PM. During work hours, roads will be closed to through traffic; however, local traffic and emergency vehicles will be permitted access.
Motorists are advised that traffic patterns will change throughout the duration of the project and are strongly encouraged to slow down, use caution, and remain alert when traveling through active construction zones. Flaggers and construction signage will be in place where necessary to ensure safety for both workers and the traveling public.
“South Brunswick continues to make strategic investments in infrastructure that directly improve safety, reliability, and quality of life for our residents,” said Mayor Charlie Carley. “While this work will require temporary adjustments for drivers, the long-term benefits of safer roads and upgraded utilities are significant and lasting.”
PROJECT OVERVIEW
The roadway improvements will be completed in multiple phases, including:
- Sanitary sewer system upgrades, including new mains and connections
- Potable water system improvements, including new mains, hydrants, and services
- Drainage and underdrain improvements
- Full replacement of curb, sidewalk, driveway aprons, and ADA handicapped ramps
- Roadway reclamation and installation of a new asphalt surface
- Final restoration and striping of roadway
Work will proceed in a phased manner to minimize disruption while ensuring safe and efficient completion of all utility and roadway improvements.
South Brunswick Township thanks the public for its continued patience and cooperation as these necessary infrastructure improvements are completed.
