The Township of Montclair has contracted with 4 Clean-up, Inc. to perform street improvements on Harrison Avenue, between Graham Terrace and Cedar Avenue, beginning on or about Monday, October 12, 2026, weather permitting.

Construction will begin at Graham Terrace and proceed north toward Cedar Avenue. Improvements will include reconstruction of existing curbs, driveway aprons, and ADA curb ramps.

Milling, paving, and additional traffic-calming improvements will take place at a later date. A separate notice will be issued to affected residents before paving begins.

Construction Schedule and Traffic Impacts

Construction is expected to last approximately 2–3 weeks, depending on weather and other conditions. Work will generally take place Monday through Friday, from 7:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m.

Residents and motorists should anticipate the following:

  • Temporary road closures: Harrison Avenue may be closed to through traffic at various times during construction hours.

  • Parking restrictions: On-street parking will not be permitted during active construction. Residents who need access to their vehicles during the day should relocate them before 7:00 a.m.

  • Driveway access: Properties receiving curb and driveway apron reconstruction may experience restricted driveway access for several days while concrete cures.

Important Information for Residents

Residents are asked to mark any privately installed underground utilities or features, including sprinkler systems, invisible fences, and driveway heating elements, before construction begins. Plantings located between the sidewalk and curb may also need to be temporarily relocated.

Motorists and pedestrians are encouraged to use caution, observe posted signs, and allow extra travel time while work is underway.

For questions or concerns regarding construction, please contact the Department of Public Works at 973-509-5711.
