Complaints About Route 35 Construction? Ask Mayor Amato And State Officials

Mayor Carmen Amato and the state want residents of South Seaside Park to know if they have questions or complaints regarding the state's Route 35 reconstruction project.

The state has set up a 24-hour, 7-days-a-week hotline at 732 230 7356. The state has also set up an email address for complaints or concerns as well: restore.NJ35@dot.state.nj.us.

A website for the project has also been established: www.restoreNJ35.com.

In early-July, Governor Chris Christie announced the initial start of the $265 million construction project to rebuild Route 35 and now major construction operations are well underway.
