Sea Bright officials may close Ocean Avenue along the length of the borough due to flooding from Tuesday’s heavy rains, police Chief John Sorrentino tells redbankgreen.

At 9:45 a.m., Ocean Avenue was impassable due to flooding in the 300 block – about halfway between the Rumson and Highlands bridges — as well at the Monmouth Beach border, Sorrentino said.

In addition, side-streets on the Shrewsbury River side of the narrow borough are experiencing “the usual” flooding, he said.

With high tide expected at about 11:15 a.m., “we’re getting to the point where we may just shut down” the entire length of the roadway, which is state highway, Route 36, Sorrentino said.

Warning signs were being posted at entry points to the borough, he said.
