NEW BRUNSWICK, NJ—Remsen Avenue may not be recognizable even to its own residents as the city embarks on a massive sewer repair project between George and Sandford Streets.
Nearly a dozen of pieces of heavy machinery remain parked up and down the corridor, even during nights and weekends, when work is not being done.
Each day, contractors dig up a little more of the road and the sewer below. Truckloads of dirt and rocks from the project are then dumped at the city's Department of Public Works on Jersey Avenue.
