WOODBINE – Mayor William Pikolycky announced an application to the New Jersey Department of Transportation Local Aid Improvement Fund (LAIF), for funding of $615,000 to complete the town’s streetscape initiative.
According to a release, with the completion of the previous streetscape phases, what remains to be addressed are the blocks of Adams Avenue between DeHirsch Avenue and Franklin Street, and Franklin Street between Adams Avenue and Washington Avenue.
“If awarded by the Department of Transportation, this application will complete the infrastructure for this streetscape program that has spanned over 15 years of work, and bring our town center into a full realization of the accessible aesthetics that has been the concept for which we were striving,” stated Pikolycky.
The vacant lot at the intersection of Franklin Avenue and Adams Avenue is the proposed site of a pedestrian and bicycle-oriented “rest stop” to serve the town center, and tie in with the borough’s extensive bikeway system.
Additionally, the borough proposes to make streetscape improvements along Adams Avenue, Franklin Street, and the median island on DeHirsch Avenue which will complement the new trailhead, as well as the existing streetscape improvements.
