Despite residents’ continued protests and ongoing pleas for local government intercession, Public Service Electric and Gas (PSE&G) will resume work on the installation of 65-foot-high utility poles as early as today.
PSE&G officials met with Ridgewood staff Wednesday morning to detail the remainder of the project and produce a timeline for completion within the village, said acting Village Manager Heather Mailander. Utility crews will be back on the streets, specifically on Maple Avenue, to trim tree branches and work on the new poles that were previously mounted.
