Active Alerts

The Washington Crossing Toll-Supported Bridge is scheduled to be reduced to a single lane with alternating traffic controlled by flaggers 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. Monday, Aug. 11.

The travel restriction will allow a Commission contractor to perform work related to the recent erection of a sign gantry oversized vehicle "headache bar" at the bridge's Pennsylvania approach.

Motorists are urged to reduce speeds, exercise caution and follow flagger instructions.

The schedule travel restriction is subject to change due to weather, emergencies, and other factors.

A series of daytime off-peak travel restrictions are scheduled at and near the Scudder Falls (I-295) Toll Bridge Monday, Aug. 11, to Thursday, Aug. 14. They are as follows:

• Monday, 9 a.m. to noon -- Single lanes in each direction on Taylorsville Road beneath I-295 for inspections of the overhead bridge structure;
• Tuesday, 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. -- Right shoulder closures in each direction on NJ Route 29 beneath the I-295 approach bridge to the Scudder Falls Bridge;

Motorists are urged to reduce speeds and exercise caution when traveling through restricted areas.

The scheduled travel restrictions are subject to change due to weather, emergencies, and other factors.

Note: The Commission performs bridge inspections annually. Its toll bridges are inspected in odd-numbered years and its toll-supported bridges (non-toll) are examined in even-numbered years.  Under this process, each Commission bridge receives a full examination every two years, a requirement established by the Federal Highway Administration and the National Bridge Inspection Standards. The findings are published in the Commission’s annual inspection reports posted on the Commission website at: http://www.drjtbc.org/documents/inspection/.

The New Hope-Lambertville (Route 202) Toll Bridge is restricted to single travel lanes in each directions with a 10-foot width restriction in the southbound (Pennsylvania-bound) direction and an 11-foot width restrictions in the northbound (New Jersey-bound) direction.

The travel restrictions will remain in effect until further notice.

A Commission contractor is in the process of removing the former cash-collection toll plaza at the bridge. The Contractor will then erect an open-road cashless all-electronic tolling gantry in approximately the same location. The project also will involve repairs and improvements to the bridge’s Pennsylvania abutment.

Route 202 motorists approaching the bridge are urged to reduce speeds, prepare for lane shifts, observe size restrictions, and exercise caution.
