Plainsboro officials will break ground on the second phase of the Plainsboro Road traffic calming project on Tuesday, September 14.
The ceremony, which is scheduled for 10 a.m., will take place at the corner of Plainsboro Road and Enterprise Drive — adjacent to the Cranbury Brook neighborhood.
The traffic calming project — which is the second phase of the overall program — will improve road conditions, slow traffic, and provide improved pedestrian mobility and safety on Plainsboro Road between Enterprise Drive and the Princeton Meadows Shopping Center.
Improvements include construction of an island in the middle of the roadway, enhancing pedestrian safety and crosswalks, and providing for new curbing. Funding for the project comes from a $700,000 federal grant and two local aid grants from the state Department of Transportation, worth a total $440,000.
