Railroad crossing construction to shut roads in Glen Rock. Be ready for detours

GLEN ROCK — Construction along NJ Transit's Bergen County Line railroad crossing will close some local roads in early August.

Rock Road between Maple Avenue and Glen Avenue will be closed to traffic from Aug. 1 to Aug. 8, the police department said.

Weather permitting, two police officers will be assigned to the construction detail for the first two days to assist with traffic control for the start of the project.

The Bergen County Line is a commuter rail owned by New Jersey Transit and loops off the Main Line between the Meadowlands and Glen Rock.

Detours for the project include:

• Westbound traffic on Rock Road will be detoured down Maple Avenue to Glen Avenue and back to Rock Road. There will be a soft road closure on Rock Road at Maple Avenue and a hard closure on Rock Road at Harding Plaza.
• Eastbound traffic on Rock Road will be detoured down Glen Avenue to Maple Avenue and back to Rock Road. There will be a soft road closure on Rock Road at Glen Avenue and a hard closure on Rock Road at West Plaza.
