Belleville Food Truck Park on Washington Avenue Will Serve Food, Fun
BELLEVILLE β OCTOBER 17, 2025 β Town officials are planning to transform a small space on Washington Avenue into a unique dining destination for foodies with an appetite for fun and delicious food.
The Belleville Food Truck Park will tap Americaβs newfound love affair with food trucks that serve everything from smash burgers to fusion Asian dishes to specialty cupcakes and many other delights.
Two trucks will stay for 30 days at a time at the park, which will invite diners in through a large open entryway.
After a month, two new trucks will occupy the space that will also include various sitting areas, ranging from picnic tables to lounge chairs.
The township is renovating the property at 128 Washington Ave., which it received at no cost via a state grant.
The Belleville Food Truck Park will also include co****le games, artificial grass and gates that will unfold from behind two columns to close off the park during off hours. The park may also include wifi.
Mayor Michael Melham said heβs hoping Belleville Food Truck Park will be ready to open in November.
βWhen it came to this space on Washington Avenue, weβve taken a decidedly out-of-the-box approach,β Melham said. βIt was too small for municipal parking, so we are transforming it into something we think the residents and families will not only find to be a fun experience, but the food will be delicious, too.β
Township Manager Brian Banda said the monthly rent for food truck owners will be $500, and they must commit to opening their trucks at least three or four days a week.
He added the park will be open to the public, not just for those purchasing food. Also, the local businesses and residents should benefit from the space being activated.
