August 27 Update - Road Paving Schedule

The Borough of New Providence is advising residents of upcoming road paving activities and asking residents to plan accordingly. Residents are asked to place garbage and recycling at the curb the night before their scheduled paving work. All vehicles must be removed from the work area by 6:30 a.m. on paving days.

There will be no access to streets during paving operations until the newly placed asphalt has cooled. Vehicles left within the work zone may not be immediately accessible while crews are working on the street. Residents should plan in advance to move vehicles, particularly if they will need access during the day.

The paving schedule includes: Northview Road and Forest Road on August 28, 2026; High Street on August 28, 2026; Columbus Avenue, Potter Street, Dunlap Street, and Sixth Street on August 31, 2026; and Richland Drive, Jane Road, and Wesley Court on September 1, 2026. Brook Hollow Lane and Colony Court have been completed.

The paving schedule is subject to change based on weather, contractor availability, and field conditions. Residents should monitor Borough communications for schedule updates. The Borough appreciates residents' cooperation and patience as this important roadway improvement work is completed. These projects are intended to improve roadway conditions, safety, and the overall quality of the Borough's streets.
