The Issue

For over 50 years, Aldrich Avenue in Metuchen, NJ has been overlooked and neglected. Its crumbling pavement and poorly constructed curbs have not only become an eyesore, but they have also had a negative impact on property values in what should be a vibrant and thriving neighborhood.

The community members of Aldrich Avenue remember a time when their street was a source of pride. Over the decades, however, the lack of maintenance has led to potholes, cracked sidewalks, and deteriorating curbs. These hazards are not just an inconvenience; they pose safety risks to pedestrians, cyclists, and motorists alike. Additionally, the current state of the street discourages potential buyers, directly affecting the investments residents have made in their homes.

Re-investing in Aldrich Avenue through comprehensive repaving and curb reconstruction will not only boost property values but also restore community pride and ensure safer passage for everyone who travels through or lives in the area. Infrastructure improvements are crucial for enhancing the quality of life and maintaining the charm of Metuchen.

It is not just about aesthetics; it is about safety, property value, and community well-being. Join us in calling on the local government of Metuchen to prioritize this project and allocate the necessary resources. By signing this petition, you are helping to bring long overdue change to Aldrich Avenue, backing a strong push for immediate action to revitalize our cherished neighborhood street. Demand accountability and commitment from those in charge for the betterment of our community.

Please sign this petition to urge the town of Metuchen to repave Aldrich Avenue and rebuild the curbs for a safer, more beautiful, and more valuable neighborhood street for all.
