Seaside Heights is already working to ensure its “Classic American Boardwalk” is ready for another<\/em> summer.<\/p>\n

The borough council this week approved a resolution soliciting bids for a timber replacement project on portions of the northern section of the boardwalk. The entire boardwalk was replaced after Superstorm Sandy, which rolled ashore a decade ago in October. Over that period of time, the boardwalk has held up well, officials said, but a heavily-trafficked area where vehicles access the oceanfront is in need of maintenance.<\/p>\n

Borough Administrator Christopher Vaz said funding has been set aside for the project, though the cost of timber as well as labor has seen a marked increase in recent years. The current plan calls for the reconstruction of the vehicle access point on Grant Avenue, followed by general timber replacement to the north.<\/p>\n

“We’re going to go as far north as the funding will get us,” said Vaz. “We think that\u2019s at least a block or a little bit more.”<\/p>\n

About $900,000 has been appropriated for the project.<\/p>\n
