The oft-delayed bridge deck replacement project at the intersection of Metropolitan Avenue and Fresh Pond Road isn’t going to be wrapping up anytime soon. According to the Department of Transportation, its contract with New Jersey-based firm Mugrose Construction for the project at the Middle Village-Ridgewood border was defaulted, indefinitely delaying construction. “The DOT defaulted the contractor working on the Metropolitan Avenue bridge deck replacement,” an agency spokesperson told the Chronicle in a Wednesday email. “We are working closely with the bonding company to get this project completed as quickly as possible after it suffered delays beyond our control.”
