Borough Hall is closed on December 24 and 25 for the Christmas holiday. NJ American Water is aware of taste and odor issues. There are currently no drinking water advisories in place.
Located at the center of New Jersey and its transportation network, Somerville has been called Downtown Somerset County. Main Street is a destination for shopping and dining for any taste.
We're building a new facility for Somerville's first responders. This new building is located in the Gaston Avenue redevelopment area. Learn more about the project.
