Authorities are looking for burglar who busted through the front door of the Fardale Deli & Mini Mart this weekend and stole an undisclosed amount of cash.

At 5:09 a.m., a person wearing a dark-colored hoodie, full-face ski mask, dark colored gloves and boots exited the vehicle, picked up a large rock and threw it through the front door of the deli, shattering the glass, according to Mahwah Police Chief Jim Batelli.

The township announced that on Monday, Oct. 22, the New Jersey Department of Transportation will begin construction that will force much of Wyckoff Avenue to close for the week. The DOT will refurbish the railroad crossing on Wyckoff Avenue near the intersection of Main Street and require that Wyckoff Avenue at the railroad crossing be closed 24 hours a day for 5 days. Weather or unforseen circumstances could force the closure to last even longer, the township told residents earlier this week. A posted detour will take motorists around the closed roadway utilizing Franklin Avenue and Godwin Avenue. Southbound traffic on Wyckoff Avenue should turn onto Godwin Avenue and follow the detour route. Northbound traffic on Wyckoff Avenue should …

PSE&G has for the third time this week revised its estimates for completion of underground repairs at Wyckoff and Franklin avenues. The utility company expects to move on by Friday evening, but won't rule out additional work on Monday.
Wyckoff residents and local commuters traveling through the intersection at Wyckoff and Franklin avenues will get no relief this week as underground construction is expected to continue plaguing the downtown business district at least until Friday evening, officials announced today. Construction delays have forced PSE&G to again delay the completion of repairs to underground gas lines at the intersection, which they had told township officials earlier this week could be completed as early as Tuesday. Wyckoff Police Chief Benjamin Fox said Thursday afternoon that there had been no accidents at the intersection all week despite the backups, delays and unexpected traffic patterns. "Congestion has been very, very heavy," Fox said Thursday. "…

Roadwork may extend into Thursday, an official said
Underground roadwork that caused traffic back ups at a busy township intersection on Monday and Tuesday will be continued Wednesday and possibly Thursday, a PSE&G representative told the township Tuesday. Complications at Franklin and Wyckoff avenues caused the utility company to revise its work schedule. "I was told late today that due to the grouping of all sorts of utility pipes in that narrow stretch of road that it will probably take a full day tomorrow and possibly into Thursday," said Township Administrator Bob Shannon at a committee work session Tuesday. Shannon added that he would send an email blast to residents if the utility company notifies the township that work would definitely continue beyond Wednesday. PSE&G crews have …
