Snowden Lane Sanitary Project Continues In Princeton: Police

PRINCETON, NJ — Work related to the Snowden Lane Sanitary Sewer Project began on Wednesday and will continue on Thursday, weather permitting, according to Princeton police.

There will be milling on the existing roadway and a new surface course of asphalt pavement will be installed on the following road sections:

• Snowden Lane between Barbara Smoyer Park and the stream culvert near the intersection with Overbrook Drive. Only the southbound lane affected by sanitary sewer pipe will be milled and repaved.
• Van Dyke Road (Terhune Drive) between All Saints Road and Snowden Lane. Only pavement over pipe trench will be milled and repaved.

During work, Snowden Lane will be closed to through traffic between Herrontown Road and Overbrook Drive. Likewise, Van Dyke Road will be closed to through traffic between All Saints Road and Snowden Lane. A detour will be posted. Work is scheduled to take place between 7 a.m. and 5 p.m.

Residents should remember access to driveways on the west side of Snowden Lane will be limited when the milling operations are in front of their house. It will be restricted for about two hours following the installation of the new asphalt pavement in front of the driveway while the new pavement sets. Anyone who needs to get in and out of their property during the work hours should park their car on a side street.

Residents needing to access their driveways during work hours should contact Rich Decker, Princeton Project Inspector, who can assist in accommodating individual needs.

Provisions will be made for emergency services vehicles and for continued services such as brush collection, mail delivery, garbage and recycling pick-up.
