Margate Causeway Closed Again Overnight This Week

Here we go again.  My ride to work will take a little longer this week, and, if like me, you usually travel on the Margate Causeway late night or early morning, you are going to have to allow for a longer commute, too.

Another round of  planned maintenance work on the Causeway is scheduled to begin  Monday night, Nov 12 from 10 PM to 6 AM and will continue through Thursday, Nov. 16, weather permitting.

This is the second round of off-season overnight closures in two months for the privately-owned roadway which links Margate and Absecon Island to the mainland.

According to "Downbeach Express" owners Ole Hansen and Sons, you should seek alternate routes during the overnight construction periods but full bridge access will be available each day between 6 AM and 10 PM. There will be no interruption to boat traffic in the channel during construction.
