Route 38, South Church Street, and Fellowship Road (Township of Moorestown, Burlington County)

Route 38 and South Church St existing conditions

According to NJDOT’s Congestion Management System, the intersection of Route 38, south Church Street, and Fellowship Road has been ranked as the 2^ndhighest priority location for traffic relief statewide due to lack of capacity, significant crash history, and queuing on westbound Route 38, southbound on south Church Street, and on Fellowship Road. This proposed project will look to improve level of service/safety, reduce congestion, and provide ADA compliance along the network intersection.

Two important details to note, Strawbridge Lake Park is located within the limits of the project and any taking of the land from the park will involve the Township of Moorestown and the New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection (NJDEP) with a Public Hearing and a review and approval by the State House Commission. Secondly, protection of historic properties will be taken into account and NJDOT will encourage a public input process in order to carry out the historic preservation process in which this project may affect historic resources within the project limits. Historic preservation organizations, historical societies, or similar groups with information about cultural resources in the project area are encouraged to attend. Questions or comments regarding the project’s impact on historic and cultural resources may be submitted to Brenna Fairfax via mail or email at:
