Bernardsville Residents Urged To Stay Off Turf Field

BERNARDSVILLE, NJ — Bernardsville Borough is reminding residents and locals that the Polo Grounds artificial turf field is still under construction and is "not a safe area even when work is not underway."

Residents are asked to obey the signs and stay out of the designated construction zone at all times.

"The field is NOT suitable for play and WILL NOT be ready for use until the spring of 2018," the borough stated.

"Any person occupying this area before it is opened to the public risks personal injury and criminal prosecution, and may cause permanent damage to the artificial turf," the borough stated.

All organizations eligible to use the field will be advised of scheduling requirements well in advance of the opening.
