Police Asking Residents To Avoid Route 36

Parking and shuttle service to Bamboozle from Monmouth Park is causing major traffic on Route 36 Sunday afternoon.

The West Long Branch Police issued a Nixle alert around 2 p.m. warning residents of "bumper to bumper" traffic on Highway 36 east from the Parkway to the parking lot at Monmouth Park.

Police are asking motorists to not gridlock intersections and to be patient while driving in the area. Motorists are also being urged to "avoid the area if possible."

The West Long Branch Police have issued Nixle messages over the last three days about traffic jams in the area, because of the Asbury Park concert which will conclude Sunday night.
