📰 News we're reading
• Westwood Drivers Face Old Hook Road Lane Closures (patch.com) — Westwood drivers are being warned about upcoming lane closures and detours on Old Hook Road as PSE&G replaces aging gas pipes near the Closter and Harrington Park borders through mid-November. Work will occur weekdays, with possible weekends, and may significantly affect travel between Bogert Mill Road and Schraalenburgh Road, so residents are urged to allow extra time or seek alternate routes.
