The new pier has been closed for months due to questions about its safety.
Workers installed a fence across the middle of the pier Tuesday, blocking access to the portion of the walkway that extends over the water. The pier had been closed for months due to an ongoing structural investigation.
The Ocean Grove Camp Meeting Association, which owns the boardwalk and the pier, did not immediately respond to a request to comment Wednesday.Ocean Grove is a section of Neptune Township. The Ocean Grove Camp Meeting Association, which was founded by Methodists during Ocean Grove’s days as a summer religious retreat, controls many of the public spaces in the community and leases land to homeowners and businesses.
The reopening comes amid a separate dispute between Ocean Grove and the state Department of Environmental Protection over beach access from the boardwalk. The association, founded in 1870, has traditionally barred access to the beach before noon on Sundays between Memorial Day weekend and Labor Day weekend in another reflection of the town’s Christian roots.
