As planning and design continue for the Atlantic City Expressway (ACE) Third Lane Widening Project, Stokes Creative Group is helping ensure that residents, businesses, commuters, and stakeholders remain informed every step of the way.
The ACE Third Lane Widening Project is a major infrastructure investment led by the South Jersey Transportation Authority (SJTA) that will add a third lane in each direction between Interchange 31 and Route 42, creating a continuous three-lane corridor along the Atlantic City Expressway. As a project of this scale progresses through design and ultimately construction, effective communication with the public plays a critical role in its success.
Stokes has partnered with Michael Baker International to provide comprehensive public outreach and communications support throughout the Final Design phase. Our team developed and currently manages the project’s public-facing website, ensuring stakeholders have access to the latest project information, schedules, exhibits, and updates. In addition to maintaining project communications, Stokes supports public engagement initiatives designed to gather input and keep communities informed about project developments. This includes coordinating outreach efforts, preparing communication materials, developing project graphics and exhibits, and assisting with Public Information Centers and Local Officials Briefings that allow residents and stakeholders to learn more about the project and share feedback.
By creating clear, accessible communication channels, Stokes helps bridge the gap between complex infrastructure improvements and the communities they impact. Through strategic outreach, digital communications, and stakeholder engagement, our team is helping ensure the public remains informed as this important transportation project advances toward construction.
We are proud to support the ACE Third Lane Widening Project and contribute to an initiative that will enhance mobility, improve safety, and strengthen transportation infrastructure throughout South Jersey for years to come.
