Repairs Continue On Glen Avenue In Millburn: PSEG and NJAW

Millburn, NJ – Road work and repairs continue on Glen Avenue in Millburn.

PSE&G and New Jersey American Water employees were at work on Monday, according to a Millburn PBA social media post.

On Tuesday, PSE&G representatives provided Patch with the following statement about the work their company is performing in the area:

“On Sunday, PSE&G responded to a gas leak at Glen Avenue and Burnside Drive in Millburn. Our crews are currently on site making final repairs and expect to finish [Tuesday]. The cause is under investigation. The leak does not pose any danger to the public.”

A New Jersey American Water spokesman told Patch on Tuesday afternoon that the company has completed work on Glen Avenue, where they had been installing valves on a transmission main.

“In June, [NJAW] finished a cleaning and lining project on the main... Installing the valves was the last phase of the project,” a company spokesman told Patch. “The valves had to be installed after summer when water demand is highest and we could not shut down the main during that time.”

“Beginning [Wednesday], we will be working along Millburn Avenue (from Lakawana to the Maplewood border) to install outside water meters at residential properties in preparation for a cleaning and lining project that will begin in the spring,” the spokesman added.
