North Arlington, NJ — The borough council awarded a contract last week for the paving of Gold Street from Front Street to Albert Street, said Council President Al Granell.
The Gold Street improvements include milling the existing surface, repaving the street, replacing sidewalks and creating new handicapped friendly curb cuts as needed.
The $168,340 contract was awarded to 4 Clean-up Inc of North Bergen. The cost will be offset by a $79,600 grant from the County of Bergen, through the Community Development Block Grant fund. “By leveraging CDBC monies, we can lower the cost of improvements to our taxpayers,” said Granell.
Engineers for the project expect construction to begin in mid-April, weather permitting.
Mayor Peter Massa said the street paving is part of his administration continued investment in the borough’s infrastructure. “We want to continue to make investments that add to the homeowners’ property values,” said Massa.
