Canal road south of 6mr before the S turn. I was tempted to go thru but couldn't tell how deep past that stalled SUV, or how fast the water was running. A new Mercedes sedan was on a flatbed to my left as I took this pic. He didn't make it either
Hollow Road bridge is still closed, only 3-4 months behind schedule.
So to add to it, Mercer decided to get in on the action and started construction on a 518 bridge just east of Hopewell Boro between Kings Path and Aunt Molly. I rode over it on Tuesday but the jersey barriers were blocking the bridge. I would expect the bridge will be removed by next week. Only 150 days!
Township of Hopewell
Hopewell-Rocky Hill Road [Structure Nos. 252.2 and 252.8]
over Tributaries of Beden's Brook
On or about Monday, March 11, 2019, bridge construction will commence on Mercer County Structure Nos. 252.2 and 252.8, which carries Hopewell-Rocky Hill Road over Tributaries of Beden's Brook, located between Elm Street and Aunt Molly Road in the Township of Hopewell, immediately east of the Hopewell Borough line. Anticipated duration of this project is approximately one hundred and fifty [150] working days, weather permitting.
During construction, Hopewell-Rocky Hill Road [County Route 518] will be closed to through traffic on a 24/7 basis. Motorists will be directed to use Princeton Avenue/Carter Road, Cherry Valley Road and Province Line Road. However, local access will be permitted up to the physical road closure point.

Wow what a joke re: hollow rd. And 518 will be a shitshow - all that traffic going up provinceline rd?
The official detour is carter > cherry valley > great road. But you know, peeps going to be using Provinceline and even aunt molly.
And.. cherry valley is closed to add to the fun
Well, for the return of the @rick81721, Hollow Road is open, rode it this morning.

Thanks - I almost went that way last evening but didn't want to chance it being closed
What you talking about? SERVIS road is a treat!

Amending this after literally just riding it again - it's really only bad from hillsboro CC to Longhill.
HTFU, it isn’t Florida
