MAPLEWOOD VILLAGE
CONSTRUCTION MITIGATION COMMITTEE UPDATES VILLAGE PARKING MAP TIMED TO POST
OFFICE BUILDING CONSTRUCTION
Demolition to begin in
Coming Weeks
The
Maplewood Construction Mitigation Committee, in partnership with the Maplewood
Village Alliance, today released an updated parking map for Maplewood Village
in anticipation of the start of demolition of the old Post Office building in
the coming weeks.
During the
demolition and construction, which is anticipated to take approximately 12
months, there will be some reduction in parking around the construction
site. While there may be intermittent
closures to allow for truck traffic and deliveries, there will be no
significant change in traffic patterns. The Ricalton Square entry from
Maplewood Avenue will be open and one-way circulation will be maintained. And the pedestrian underpass near the
construction site will remain open throughout construction.
Julie Doran,
the Executive Director of the Village Alliance, explained, “We are working
closely with the Township and the Construction Mitigation Committee to ensure
that residents, shop owners and employees and visitors know where they can find
free parking. Maplewood will be open and ready for business throughout the
construction.”
Ms. Doran
explained that during evening and weekend hours the NJ Transit parking areas
and Dunnell Road on-street parking is often available. Also, on-street parking on Woodland Road
between Durand Road and Jefferson Avenue is allowed and often available.
All parking
restrictions do remain in place, however, and she encouraged drivers to refer
to the posted parking signs – commuter restrictions and time limits remain in
place.
New parking
maps will be available in shops throughout the village and online at MaplewoodVillageNJ.com.
