A series of temporary daytime off-peak lane closures are scheduled to be implemented at the Commission’s three northerly toll bridges during the week of Apr. 12.
The schedule is as follows:
- Milford-Montague (Route 206) Toll Bridge — flagger-controlled alternating single-lane travel 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. Monday, Apr. 13;
- Portland-Columbia Toll Bridge (Routes 611, 94, and 46) — flagger-controlled alternating single-lane travel 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. Tuesday, Apr. 14;
- Delaware Water Gap (I-80) Toll Bridge
- Eastbound/NJ-bound lane closure (one of two lanes open) 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. Wednesday, Apr. 15
- Westbound/PA-bound left lane and Express E-ZPass facility closure 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. Thursday, Apr. 16. Motorists should use the adjoining former cash-collection toll lanes (cash transactions no longer accept).
The scheduled travel restrictions are needed so a Commission engineering consultant can conduct work associated with the design of future projects to establish highway-speed open-road all-electronic toll facilites at the three 72-year-old bridges.
Motorists are advised to reduce speeds and exercise caution whenever travel restrictions are in effect.
The schedule is subject to change due to weather, emergencies, and other factors.
Travel delays — if any — are expected to be minor.
