DARLINGTON RIDGE PROJECT
Toll Brothers has begun construction on the Darlington Ridge development between Lenape and Tigue Roads. You can review key documents associated with the development from the Building, Zoning & Code Enforcement page. Recently, Flyway Construction began to mobilize on the south side of Tigue Road in preparation for a stream restoration project. While this is in close proximity to Toll Brothers’ Darlington Ridge project, the two projects are separate.
