PHOTO: Police are asking pedestrians and motorists to use caution at the intersection of Route 9 and 7th Street, as one northbound lane is closed for traffic and the sidewalk closed to pedestrians.
Police say pedestrians are ignoring the signs and are walking around the construction equipment and into the roadway.
The road job is expected to be completed at about 5 PM.

people are ignoring the signs thats nothing new in lakewood
right outside my house is a sign road closed but no one is even listening and are still driving that way. its really sad because the people doing the work get upset since no one listens.
Good thing police are asking motorists to use caution at this particular intersection. Thankfully the other intersections on Route 9 are completely safe under normal conditions.
#1 If u r referring to the bridge repair on Brook Rd. I’m not surprised that people r ignoring the signs, nobody can believe that it takes so long to repair a bridge. They think someone forgot to take the sign away.
