West Milford — The drive-thru section of McDonald’s Restaurant at 41 Marshall Hill Road in West Milford will remain open throughout the reconstruction project that is now underway.
However, the in-restaurant dining is closed until the renovations are complete.
The work is expected to be done by mid-February. The project will bring the restaurant onto conformance with the newest McDonald prtototype, in addition to providing an expanded drive through system, according to plans submitted to the West Milford Planning Board in 2012.
KMK Development Group Inc. of Scotch Plains is the contractor for the project costing $457,000, according to West Milford Building Department Records.
The 37-year-old restaurant is about 3,437 square feet. The reconstructed building will remain on the original footprint.
