Bridge Closed

Until further notice, the connector bridge between the NJ and PA turnpikes is closed. Painters found a cracked truss beam on the PA side yesterday afternoon. No good alternate routes. Look for very increased traffic in area.

Last time I visited NYC (1998 as I recall) there was a closed bridge on the way home... However the closure was a tad more "Impressive" seems two fuel tankers had a disagreement over right of way and .. Well.. the bridge... Melted.

OK then it's the I-276 bridge, I was looking at the direct connection between I-76 and the Jersey Pike.

Bridge Closed

Update, bridge will be closed for at least 2 weeks while entire structure is evaluated. Fractured truss was under right westbound lane on Pennsylvania side. After evaluation, only then will a repair action take place.

Bridge Closed

This is the bridge where you can drive unfettered into NJ.
You must pay to leave NJ.

Thats not good, especially since all the other steel is the same age and, presumably, alloy
