Friendship Road Bridge Reopened

It took nearly seven months, but the Friendship Road bridge has finally been reopened. The township announced Monday that repairs to the roadway between New Road and Broadway Road has been completed.

The small bridge suffered last year and was impassable due to a gaping hole. Work to repair the bridge was performed by Middlesex County, and included guide rail installation, topcoat paving, striping and minor landscaping work.

Work began to fix the damage began during the third week of December, with this month targeted for the reopening.

Middlesex County told South Brunswick officials the repairs would involve extensive maintenance on the bridge with the expectations of avoiding any future storm-related problems.
