Planned Route 35 Construction Assessment Postponed

State and local officials were scheduled today to assess the construction progress to rebuild a 12.5-mile segment of Route 35 on the Barnegat Peninsula that was severely damaged by Hurricane Sandy, but the event has been postponed. 

In early-July, Governor Chris Christie announced the initial start of the $265 million construction project to rebuild Route 35 and now major construction operations are well underway.

A press conference - which was planned for today and will be rescheduled  according to a prepared statement - will include New Jersey Department of Transportation Commissioner James S. Simpson and Brick Township with Mayor Stephen Acropolis.
