The route is approximately 12 miles along existing public rights of way and roadways (all necessary permits, easements, and state/local approvals are in-place in advance of the work beginning) through Lawrence Township, Ewing Township, and Hamilton Township.
PSE&G will work with Ewing Township Police to keep traffic impacts to a minimum.
On or about February 14, you may see our crews on the right-of-way building temporary access roads needed to execute construction. Please be aware that equipment and materials, including steel for the replacement structures, may be stored and partially assembled on the right-of-way at various times during the construction period.
PSE&G and its contractors will be upgrading the electric system in your neighborhood to continue to provide safe, reliable service. Construction crews will be actively working on the PSE&G and public rights of way in Hamilton, as well as surrounding communities.
In accordance with the Board of Public Utilities’ Vegetation Management Rules, we may also trim and remove trees, where necessary. We will install taller, sturdier utility poles and run new electric wires along a new pole line. There are no planned service interruptions associated with this work.
This work is expected to begin on or about March 25, 2019 and continue, intermittently, through September 30, 2019, from 7 a.m. to 6 p.m., Monday through Friday and 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. on Saturday. Some extended workdays may be necessary. To safely complete this work, lane closures may be required. All closures will be coordinated with the Hamilton Police Department.
Safety is our highest priority. PSE&G will work with the Hamilton Police Department to minimize any traffic concerns or inconvenience to the public. It is essential that you and anyone using your property, including children and pets, refrain from going near our construction work zones. For construction activities in and on the public right of way, local authorities will provide traffic control to keep both our work crews and the traveling public safe.
We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause and thank you for your understanding as we improve electric service reliability for your neighborhood and the region.
