(Lindenwold, NJ) – Freeholder Susan Shin Angulo, liaison to the Camden County Department of Public Works, has been informed by South Jersey Gas that it is beginning Phase 2 of its Camden County Upgrade Project. Work will continue on E. Atlantic Avenue (CR 727) in Somerdale Monday through Saturday from 7 a.m. until 5 p.m.
The Phase 2 detour plan will be in effect for approximately four weeks. Traffic will be directed as follows:
Northbound on E. Atlantic Avenue:
- Turn right on Warwick Road (CR 669)
- Turn left on White Horse Pike (US 30)
- Turn right on E. Atlantic Avenue
Southbound on E. Atlantic Avenue:
- Turn left on Gloucester Pike (CR 659)
- Turn right on White Horse Pike
- Turn right on Warwick Road
- Turn left on Somerdale Road (CR 677)
- Turn right on E. Atlantic Avenue
Traffic will remain open at all times on Laurel Road in both directions.
“This is phase two of a larger project that will expand throughout the area and last until the early months of 2018,” Shin Angulo said. “Motorists should try to stay up to date with when new phases will begin and plan their routes accordingly. Extra congestion and shifting traffic patterns can be expected while work is underway.”
The Camden County Upgrade Project will upgrade gas lines in the area to improve service reliability, especially on the coldest days of the year when gas use for heating is at its peak. Precise timing of the work is subject to change due to weather or other factors. Information regarding the project, detours, and completion dates will be periodically updated online at https://www.southjerseygas.com/construction.
