New Jersey Department of Transportation (NJDOT) officials announced overnight lane closures on Route 29 as a pavement preservation project continues in Ewing and Hopewell, Mercer County, and Lambertville, Hunterdon County.
Beginning at 8 p.m. Friday, August 19, until 9 a.m. Saturday, August 20, and continuing nightly, Monday through Friday, NJDOT’s contractor, Asphalt Paving Systems, Inc., is scheduled to close a single lane on Route 29 between Route 175 in Ewing, Mercer County and Weeden Street in Lambertville, Hunterdon County to apply a slurry seal. Alternating traffic will be in effect while work is taking place.
The work is part of a $2.4 million federally funded project to preserve approximately nine miles of pavement on Route 29 in Ewing and Hopewell in Mercer County, and Lambertville in Hunterdon County. The project is expected to be completed by the end of 2023.
