PSE&G Electric will be doing utility work on North Centre Street in Pennsauken and Merchantville from Thursday, Aug. 18 through Sept. 9, excluding Labor Day.

There will be a partial road closure eastbound on North Centre Street between Cove Road and East Walnut Avenue for the duration of the project.

Daily work hours from Monday to Friday will run between 8:00 a.m. and 7:00 p.m. and on Saturday/Sunday between 8:00 a.m. and 2:00 p.m.

“Since crews will be working in the heart of town, motorists should consider taking an alternate route to avoid potential delays around Centre Street,” said Commissioner Al Dyer, liaison to the Department of Public Works. “Also, remember that when you’re traveling through a construction area, please slow down and stay alert for crew members and debris.”
