The rumors are true! Page followers have been sending in tips that work has resumed on the three-year project to reconstruct less than a mile of roadway of NJ 166 between Highland Parkway and Old Freehold.
OCSN Staff had to go out today and witness this miracle for ourselves! Indeed, construction workers were spotted working on the median, and others have witnessed some kind of paving action happening. NJ DOT claims the project will FINALLY be finished by Memorial Day. We all are sitting here waiting to see if that is a reality, or more hot air from Trenton.
Biggest joke!!!!
Junkdump. Embarrassment
Wait it’s not April fools just yet !
They were most likely shut down for the winter
What could they possibly do with a wheelbarrow and buckets
Push each other around in it and giggle?
You want a real answer? It is for concrete testing. The good news, that means they’re pouring concrete.
Not an easy job considering the road can’t be shut down
Steven Smith they shut the road down multiple time last year at night.
Frank Backle and? It’s obvious you’ve never done that type of work
Steven Smith i haven’t. you said the road can’t be shut down and I just stated that it has already been shut down
Frank Backle I stated the road can’t be shut down you’re right closing it over night isn’t shutting down the road that’s probably the busiest intersections in Tom’s River that job is no easy task especially when the D.O.T fucked up on the plans and built a retaining wall in too of the water main
buuuuut I have seen A LOT OF OTHER PROJECTS ALL OVER NJ… And none were 3 yrs for 1 intersection. Worst construction in NJ.
Barbara Ann first off nothing is going to solve the problem there. One thing you learn doing heavy highway construction is no two jobs are the same can’t judge one from the other
And you say it’s just one intersection. How many business entrances and exits? Two jug-handles on the busiest intersection in Tom’s River
That’s not including all of the previous underground utilities that had to be disconnected removed and replaced problems that weren’t expected but definitely ran into
Poor planning. Poor engineering. 12 million wasted dollars.
Yes thank God that one is holding up that barrier!
I call bullshit
Since 166 is a state highway, I think they are waiting for the EZPass ready toll booth that was mandated by Murphy to pay for the work and more. ?
NO COLLUSION!
Impossible. Must of been 6guys. Maybe,maybe one with a shovel??
Adel Davis they came back lol
Melissa Tretina lol!!

These guys from the scanner crack me up!!
Hahahaha. I own a studio right around the corner from that spot. Fix it already!!!!!
Oh No! They are working? Quick someone call Murphy he’ll put an end to that ?

Deborah Pahlck I agree, I’ve been saying the same thing since day 1. That intersection will be a disaster still.

It’s like spotting a Yeti or the Lock Ness Monster!

Waste. Doesnt work. 12 million dollar mistake. Still cutting thru parking lots like hairs on fire….jug handle still backs up across 166…..mistake.
Omg, they are still working on this…wow..
It’s about time !!! Get it done omfg
3 year isnt it 6 years now. ??????????
It’s about time, cant blame the mild winter. Maybe if they stop giving money to Lakewood the whole county would be in better shape. The Parkway is full of gigantic potholes too. This whole state is a disgrace. End of rant!
They haven’t work for so long that they will all need retraining.
NJ corruption at it’s finest.
