County set to widen roadway between Willow and Woods roads.
Somerset County annunced a project to widen Amwell Road between Willow Road and Woods Road, and to add storm sewers, will begin Monday. The initial phase of the work will be along the sides of the road, according to the county, primarily with no impact on traffic—but at times, drivers should expect lane closures. This work is expected to take through the winter to complete (depending on weather), and once the widening work begins, traffic will be reduced to one lane between 9 a.m. and 4 p.m. Flagman will be directing trafic during the work. The work is scheduled to be completed by November.
