Dewberry, a national professional services firm, was selected by the New Jersey Department of Transportation (NJDOT) to provide construction inspection services for improvements to the Route 80 Parsippany-Troy Hills roadway in Morris County, New Jersey, Milepost (MP) 41.42 to MP 45.63.
Construction on this project began in October 2012 and focuses on safety and operational and maintenance issues at several ramps and interchanges along Route 80. These improvements, also designed by Dewberry, address one of the busiest and most congested areas in northern New Jersey, and include:
- Roadway realignment
- Drainage
- Signage
- Traffic signals
- Four miles of pavement rehabilitation
- Ramp reconfiguration
- Acceleration and deceleration lanes at interchanges along Route 80
These changes will improve traffic flow at the Route 80/ Route 287 interchange, two major conduits in New Jersey.
This project ties in to another contract recently awarded to Dewberry: Route I-287 South of South Street to Littleton Road pavement resurfacing and deck replacement over Eden Lane, in the townships of Morris and Hanover, New Jersey.
