Brick officials on Tuesday night voted to solicit bids for the township’s isolated street paving program.<\/p>\n

The program, initiated by the administration of Mayor John Ducey, focuses on streets that are in need of repaving but are not part of a larger project. In the past, these streets were often allowed to remain in poor condition since it was financially unfeasible to bring equipment into town for a single, small street. But the township began grouping many of the needy streets together and bid them out at once to reduce costs.<\/p>\n

For 2020, the isolated streets to be repaved include: Bretonian Drive, Millbrook Road, Rochester Drive, Stuyvesant Avenue and Tilford Boulevard.<\/p>\n

Bids are being solicited now, and the township council is expected to award a contract to the lowest qualified bidder at a future meeting. Paving will commence once asphalt plants reopen in the spring. The street improvements also include drainage work and repairs to sidewalks and driveway aprons.<\/p>\n
