Water main installation to cause road closure in Barrington next week
(Barrington, NJ) – The water main installation on Copley Road that was set to start yesterday has been postponed and will now begin on Tuesday, Dec. 14. There will be a full road closure between Chesterfield Road and the on ramp to Route 295 for the duration of the three-day work period. The ramp is open to traffic.
“This work is a necessary step to improving the infrastructure here in Camden County,” said Commissioner Al Dyer, liaison to the Camden County Department of Public Works. “While the road closure may cause brief delays, the project will ultimately result in more efficiency to residents in the area when it is completed.”
Work hours will run from 7 a.m. to 3 p.m. Tuesday through Friday.
“Motorists should use caution while driving through the area,” Dyer said. “Give yourself extra time to get to their destination in case of possible delays.”
