Atlantic County is scheduled to issue a Notice to Proceed as of March 24 for design work for the New York Avenue Bridge in Hamilton Township, the first step in the construction of a bridge replacement.
The New York Avenue bridge over Gravelly Run, between Reega Avenue and Route 40, was closed to traffic in February after a field inspection found structural damage that was confirmed by an engineering underwater dive team.
The design phase of the project will take several months and be followed by a bidding process and contract award, Construction could begin in the fall.
