FY2021 Freight Concept Development Program Studies


    Two concept development studies were completed as part of this effort: the Berkshire Valley Road Truck Circulation Project in Roxbury, Morris County; and the Port Reading Secondary South Main Street Grade Crossing Elimination Project in Bound Brook, Somerset County.

    The Berkshire Valley Road Truck Circulation Project looked at improving truck circulation along Berkshire Valley Road in Roxbury. Two specific issues were looked at: low overhead clearance (11 feet, 5 inches) where the Morris County owned Chester Branch rail bridge crosses over Berkshire Valley Road, and a poorly configured intersection of North Dell Avenue and Berkshire Valley Road adjacent to where the Chester Branch crosses over Berkshire Valley Road.

    The Port Reading Secondary South Main Street Grade Crossing Elimination Project looked at the potential elimination of the Port Reading Secondary grade crossing at South Main Street (Queens Bridge) in Bound Brook.  Eliminating this grade crossing would greatly improve local and regional mobility.
