Freehold, NJ—The East End Avenue Bridge connection between Neptune and Neptune City over the Musquash Brook opened on May 17 with a ribbon cutting ceremony after seven months of closure.

Arnone, liaison to the County’s Department of Public Works and Engineering. “We appreciate the patience of area residents who were inconvenienced by the needed closure.”
