Flemington's Main Street Shut Down Through May 18 For Final Courthouse Square Work

FLEMINGTON, NJ - Drivers in Flemington should expect downtown detours this week as crews complete final streetscape work near Courthouse Square, borough officials announced.

Beginning Monday and running through Monday, May 18, the following roads will be closed to through traffic around the clock:

• Main Street between Mine Street and Capner Street

• Court Street between Park Avenue and Main Street

The closure is continuous — the roadway will not reopen until work is fully completed, officials said. Keeping the closure in place without interruption is expected to allow the project to wrap up in approximately one week rather than over a longer period.

Mine Street, Capner Street, and Bloomfield Avenue will remain open. Detour signage will be posted throughout the area, including routes toward Park Avenue.

Local access to Main Street will remain available for residents, businesses, customers, and delivery vehicles. Sidewalks will stay open and downtown businesses will remain accessible throughout the work.

Parking near the Court Street and Main Street intersection may be limited due to construction equipment and materials. Drivers are encouraged to use public parking lots and parking areas behind Main Street businesses when possible.

For non-emergency questions, contact the Flemington Police Department at (908) 782-3434.
