Road to the Sandbar
What's up with the road leading to the Sandbar.The road is terrible for bikes and for walking, very dangerous. The Sandbar is one of Hackettstown's treasures. Pave the road and make it safe for crying out loud.

Pave the road!?!
I don’t need my taxes going any higher because town wants to pave a secondary side road!

We're down there to walk and take pix several times a week when it isn't hot as hades - yes indeed the road in stinks - and has since we've been using it- at least two years or more.........
Was bad in 2000 when we had the Grand Review Civil War event at the Sandbar. It does keep folks from speeding. Maybe the state is leaving it like that on purpose.
I prefer the road in that condition. It slows the drivers down a bit. Of course on occasion there is the football mom who is late bringing little Johnny Unitas to practice that blows in fast anyway. LOL
I was thinking the same thing about Franklin Street when I drove on it the other day.
The area is known as Alumni field now.The entrance is opposite Napa on Willow Grove
street .In the past it was called the sandbar as it was a place for swimming. Another way to access is to enter through Riverfront Park at the end of Seber road. The two areas are connected by a series of trails near the river.
Ah yes. I love that place Greg. We live close so we walk which is why the road never came into play. Is it good to swim over by the pavilion near the football field?
No swimming. The river is polluted. Goose poop and fish hooks in there too. Very thick mud at the bottom that can trap your feet as well.
