HOLMDEL, NJ – Drivers in Holmdel will need to brace for detours and traffic delays early next week as Longstreet Road closes in both directions for paving operations near Crawfords Corner, impacting access to schools and a popular county park.
The full closure is scheduled for Monday and Tuesday, affecting the stretch from the Holmdel Park entrance to Crawfords Corner Road due to milling and paving at the intersection.
Holmdel High School’s main entrance will also be closed both days, with all traffic rerouted through the Satz School campus.
Holmdel Park will remain open but must be accessed via Roberts Road during the construction period.
A detour will be posted, and traffic near the intersection will alternate, with police officers and workers present in the roadway to manage safety and flow.
The township urges motorists to drive with caution and obey posted signage as the road work progresses. The project is expected to improve surface conditions and traffic flow through one of Holmdel’s most heavily traveled intersections.
The intersection is a key connector for school traffic, commuter routes, and access to recreational areas, and township officials expect temporary disruption during peak travel times.
Work crews will begin operations early in the morning on both days, with delays expected throughout the work zone.
The exact timeline for completion has not been provided, but the township indicated that the closures will be lifted once paving is finished and safe for travel.
