Traffic Advisory
Residents are reminded that the New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection's (NJDEP) Rebuild by Design full closure of Grove Street went into effect at 8 a.m. this morning. Grove Street is now closed 24/7 in both directions between 18th Street in Jersey City and Observer Highway in Hoboken. Detours are on Jersey Avenue and Marin Boulevard/Henderson Street. Please plan ahead and leave extra time to get in, out, and around southwest Hoboken.
Additionally, crews in Weehawken continue to make emergency repairs to a storm drain. The construction, which will continue overnight, requires the closure of one lane in each direction on the Weehawken side of the Park Avenue Bridge, which will cause delays in and out of uptown Hoboken. Drivers are advised to use the Willow Avenue Bridge as an alternate.
Police will be at both sites during working hours, to assist with traffic control and pedestrian safety.
