Atlantic City Mayor Small, NJDOT announce full repaving of Pacific Avenue 

Following on the full repaving of Atlantic Avenue through the heart of Atlantic City, Pacific Avenue will also be completely repaved, with synchronized traffic signals enhancing flow and safety along both major corridors.

Mayor Marty Small, Sr. was joined by the New Jersey Department of Transportation (NJDOT) Oct. 14 to announce a $5.3 million in grant funding that was awarded for several Atlantic City projects, including $1.08 million for the paving of Pacific Avenue from Connecticut to North Carolina avenues and $3.5 million for the paving of Pacific Avenue from North Carolina to Indiana avenues and from Hartford to Arkansas Avenue.

An additional $684,708 will support the construction of pedestrian sidewalks connecting Atlantic City High School and Chelsea Heights, a safety-focused improvement for students and families. Funding for these projects is a mix of state and federal funding.

In addition to the latest funding announcement, over $25 million in infrastructure projects are currently active throughout Atlantic City.
