PSE&G - Electric System Upgrades
Posted March 10, 2025Dear Valued Customer:
This letter is to notify you that PSE&G will be upgrading the electric system in your neighborhood. The planned upgrades will enhance the electric transmission system’s reliability, while helping to ensure safe electrical services to residents and businesses in Bayonne and neighboring communities.
On or around March 10th, 2025, PSE&G will begin underground construction and will continue into the fourth quarter of 2025. Underground construction will take place on the approved locations listed below.
Avenue C (between 10th – 55th)
Broadway (between 49th – 55th)
Work hours will be 7:00 a.m. and 5:00 p.m., Monday through Friday, however some weekend and night work may be necessary. PSE&G does not expect this project to cause any service interruptions at this current time.
PSE&G is coordinating with the Police Department to minimize any inconvenience. Please abide by the “No Parking” signs, as they will be posted 24 hours before work is scheduled to begin on each street, however afternoon and overnight parking will be available.
Some aspects of this activity may result in unavoidable noise, traffic adjustments as well as road closures. As with any construction project, you may experience an increase in traffic, loud noise, and presence of heavy equipment and machinery.
Safety is our highest priority. All material and equipment will be left on site and will be safely coned off. Therefore, it is essential that you and everyone using your property, including children and pets, refrain from going near our construction work zones.
When work is finished, we repair roads with temporary pavement until the project is complete and the ground settles. Final restoration may depend on the weather conditions, size of the project, time of year or at the request of the town. PSE&G will then have their contractors restore roads with permanent paving in accordance with town/county ordinances and paving requirements.
Should you have any questions, please call us at 1-877-462-0005.
Thank you for your understanding and patience as we improve electric service and reliability for the region.
Sincerely,
PSE&G Public Affairs Project Team
