Citing the need to get road work started on George Davison Road as soon as possible, the Plainsboro Township Committee awarded a $867,”432 contract to Lucas Bros. Inc. of Morganville, and is expecting that the project will begin in August.##M:[more]##
During the July 22 meeting, Mayor Peter Cantu said the township had sent out a request for proposals for the work and that the bid from Lucas Bros. came in about $232,”000 less than township officials anticipated. He said officials hope the project will be completed by the end of the summer.
Cantu also said that residents have been asking when the road, which is in bad condition, would be repaired, and that he is happy to see the work begin quickly.
The project entails reconstruction of a large stretch of George Davison Road, from Cranbury Neck to Plainsboro roads, to replace the worn pavement. The road borders Cranbury, and Plainsboro has had an informal agreement with Cranbury for years, in which Plainsboro has taken care of George Davidson Road from Cranbury Neck to Plainsboro Road. On the other side of Cranbury Neck is John White Road, Cranbury’s responsibility. A formal resolution that sets the terms for this road maintenance agreement was adopted in May.
