ACE MP31-44 Widening
Atlantic City Expressway Widening CD StudyPublic Information CenterThe South Jersey Transportation Authority (SJTA), is undertaking a Concept Development (CD) Study to investigate widening the Atlantic City Expressway to accommodate a third lane in each direction (eastbound and westbound) from milepost 31.6 (Interchange 31) to the western terminus at State Route 42 milepost 44.2 (Interchange 44). SJTA held a Virtual Public Information Center (PIC) on February 16, 2022 via Microsoft Teams to provide local residents and businesses with information on the study. A recording of the meeting presentation is available here: Public Meeting for SJTA Atlantic City Expressway MP 31 to MP 44 Third Lane Widening Concept Development You may also view the presentation slide deck here: Roll Plot Slides A roll plot of the preliminary preferred alternative is available here: PPA Roll Plots SJTA is accepting public comments on the project from February 16, 2022 to March 2, 2022

Project DetailsThe Atlantic City Expressway was constructed from 1962 to 1965. SJTA is completing a CD Study to investigate widening the Atlantic City Expressway to accommodate a third lane in each direction from milepost 31.6 (Interchange 31) to the western terminus at State Route 42 milepost 44.2 (Interchange 44). The project anticipates the addition of a third lane both eastbound and westbound and will include the improvement of two bridges over Route 42 and two bridges over the Great Egg Harbor River, as well as the widening and reconstruction of 16 pipe culverts along the project route. The proposed project is located in Washington Township, Gloucester County, and Gloucester Township and Winslow Township, Camden County, New Jersey. The goal of the CD Study is to develop alternatives and ultimately recommend and select the Preliminary Preferred Alternative that will improve the overall traffic operations and general safety along the corridor while minimizing environmental, right-of-way, and structural impacts. The need for the project is to alleviate the recurring congestion, particularly during the peak summer periods. The recurring congestion and geometric complexities at portions of the project limits also result in an excessively high number of rear-end and side-swipe crashes. Estimated Schedule
