Correction The July 23 edition of the Villadom Times incorrectly reported the NJ DOT and the New York Susquehanna & Western Railway Corp’s upgrade on the Sicomac Avenue railroad crossing had been completed. The work at the Sico- mac Avenue crossing has been rescheduled to begin Aug. 22 and will take approximately five days to complete. The start of the Goffle Road crossing work was delayed by one day due to the repaving of Goffle Road in the Rock Road area, which was the detour route. This work is expected to continue throughout this week.
