😊Hello Mount Olive Township! Did you know September is Hunger Action Month? We are asking the community to "Weigh Down the Wagon" for the Mount Olive Food Pantry! The wagon is located in the lobby of the Police Department in the Municipal Building. We begin collecting tonight, September 1st through Friday, November 6th. Our goal is to stock the Pantry for the upcoming holiday season. Any donation is appreciated however, only non-perishable items please. Let's make this holiday season merry and bright for all!❤️

Breastfeeding is more than nutrition, it can provide important health benefits for both babies and mothers. But every breastfeeding journey is different, and having the right education, resources, and support can make a meaningful difference.

🦟 Summer Isn’t Over Yet — Neither Are the Mosquitoes!

Warm weather can continue well into late summer, which means mosquitoes are still active. You can help reduce mosquito breeding around your home by eliminating standing water.

Road Closure Notice - Pleasant Hill Road Bridge Replacements Begin Monday, August 31, 2026

No Through Traffic on Pleasant Hill Road in Mount Olive; Separate Detours for Cars and Trucks . Pleasant Hill Road in the Flanders section of Mount Olive Township will be closed to through traffic beginning Monday, Aug. 31, after the morning rush hour, as Morris County replaces two bridges over Drakes Brook.
The bridge closures will require motorists to follow a signed detour via Reger Road and Ironia Road. Truck traffic will be directed on a separate detour via Furnace Road and Route 206.
The project is expected to take approximately four months to complete, weather permitting.
The two existing bridges, located adjacent to each other near the Flanders Valley Golf Course, have deteriorated over time and require replacement. The bridge closest to the north side of Pleasant Hill Road, nearest to Ironia Road, was built in 1900 and has severe rusting and section loss in its steel beams. The second bridge, built in 1940, also has rusting steel beams as well as voids in its foundations.
The circa 1900 bridge will be replaced with a prestressed concrete beam bridge with a concrete deck, stone-faced parapets and wingwalls. The circa 1940 bridge will receive a three-sided precast concrete frame with precast wingwalls and bridge railings, topped with an asphalt overlay.
Motorists should anticipate delays and are advised to drive with caution. Alternate routes are encouraged during construction.
The $2,608,664 project is being completed by Konkus Corporation of Hillsborough, N.J., under contract with Morris County.
