This week’s Rumson-Sea Bright Bridge replacement construction activity remains status quo, so far. But, more rain is expected, and with it Monmouth County officials advise possible changes to the usual activity.

The work schedule for Monday through Friday, again, weather permitting, is continuing during the hours of 7 a.m. to 5:30 p.m..

Some things to keep in mind in your travels, officials advise, are:

Maintain awareness of construction vehicle activity in the area. This means …

• Temporary delays are possible on any contractor work day as construction and delivery vehicles enter and exit the work areas.

Remember that the eastbound sidewalk on the bridge is closed. This means …

• The sidewalk on the south side of the bridge will be closed until further notice.
• Sidewalk users should cross at the pedestrian striping at the new island at Old Rumson Road to access the north side (westbound) walkway.

Construction work activity is ongoing in the Shrewsbury River. This means …

• Bridge replacement work is ongoing on both sides of the river south of the bridge.
• The 65-foot navigational channel width is expected to remain in effect until fall of 2023.
• Please see the Public Notice for information on future changes to channel access.
