I am pleased to announce that Congressman Tom Kean Jr. has selected the renovation of the Frenchtown Borough Police Department as one of 20 district-wide Community Project Funding submissions for FY2027.

Frenchtown Infrastructure Work Update

Dear Resident,

I am pleased to share that work on the South Washington Street Improvement Project is scheduled to begin on Monday, March 16.
Revival Contracting Corp. will be the contractor completing the project, which includes the reconstruction of South Washington Street, paving of a portion of River Road, and the resurfacing of Hawk Street.

A FY24 New Jersey Department of Transportation grant in the amount of $263,211 will be used to offset the total project costs.
While there may be some temporary disruption associated with the work, the project will result in improved stormwater drainage, smoother streets, and enhanced pedestrian safety markings on South Washington Street. These markings will help alert motorists to the D&R Canal Path crossing located on South Washington Street.

Thank you for your patience and cooperation as we complete these important infrastructure improvements.
