This includes all of Ocean Drive and Avalon Boulevard to the west end of the big bridge where Middle Township begins. The Borough will be compensated on an hourly basis. This is a trial program.
The Borough has appointed a designated employee representative in compliance with requirements of the US Department of Transportation.
