The below 5 Year Street Reconstruction Plan is the Borough’s projection of street’s which should be reconstructed in the next five years. The annual Street Reconstruction Project is advertised for public bids in early spring; the paving contractor typically begins work after the close of school. Streets included on the list with the notation “curb replacement required” are streets where the Public Works Department and the Borough Engineer have determined curbing exists which is in a state of disrepair, and replacement will be required prior to the reconstruction of the street. Property owners are responsible for maintenance and repair of the curbing along the street frontage of their property. If the curbing along the frontage of your property is determined to be in need of replacement you will receive a notice from the Borough informing you of the linear footage of curbing that needs to be replaced, and the deadline for completion of the work. This notification is given approximately twelve months prior to the onset of the street reconstruction project. This 5 Year Reconstruction Plan is subject to change based on changes in road conditions.
