The Hercules Redevelopment Plan 2 covers approximately 58 acres, incorporating five parcels, and aims to transform the site by maintaining existing zoning for smaller lots while concentrating development on a larger 46.28-acre parcel. The plan introduces a new zoning category, SEDHR, to allow certain commercial and light industrial uses while excluding heavy industrial operations. It also sets a floor area ratio of 0.45, addressing past concerns about overdevelopment on the site.

Sustainability is a key component of the redevelopment plan. It mandates green infrastructure, compliance with updated stormwater ordinances, and installation of electric vehicle charging stations. These efforts are consistent with state-level guidelines on climate change vulnerability and sustainable development.

The plan further addresses circulation and transportation by devising a strategic access plan in consultation with borough and county engineers. This includes restricted access points on Bordentown Avenue and Journey Mill Road to manage traffic flow and potential rail delivery options.
