A 2084 New Jersey General Assembly · 2024-2025 Regular Session

Requires public utility performing road excavation to repave part of road that was excavated if that road had been repaved in previous five years.

This bill requires public utilities (like gas, electric, or telecom companies) to repave road sections they excavate if that road was repaved within the last five years. Specifically, they must repave from the excavation site to the road's curbs or street corners, or up to 150 feet in each direction if corners are farther away. The law applies to all public roads, streets, or highways and takes effect immediately. It directly affects utilities performing road work and aims to prevent uneven pavement after excavation projects.
