ADA-Compliant Wildwood Investment

July 17, 2025

Big news for the Wildwoods: a major investment is coming to improve accessibility, public safety, and the overall visitor experience. The city has been awarded a $2.3 million grant from the New Jersey Department of Transportation to build a fully ADA-compliant pedestrian connector from the iconic Boardwalk to Pacific Avenue–and thanks to years of planning and collaboration, the vision is finally becoming a reality. Ernie Troiano Jr. and John Donio from the Wildwood Business Improvement District join the show to talk about what this means for locals, businesses, and the future of the Boardwalk.
