NEW HOPE, PA – Workers today succeeded in installing a new steel pin connection on the closed New Hope-Lambertville Toll-Supported Bridge, marking another major milestone in efforts to get the 120-year-old bridge back into service.

NEW HOPE, PA – Construction workers and engineers last night completed a multi-step process to remove a severely deteriorated structural connection that has forced a two-week-long shutdown of the New Hope-Lambertville Toll-Supported Bridge, the Delaware River Joint Toll Bridge Commission announced today.

The Delaware River Joint Toll Bridge Commission (DRJTBC) is counting down the hours to when it ceases handling cash toll transactions at its four high-traffic-volume toll bridges at Trenton-Morrisville (Route 1), I-78, Easton-Phillipsburg (Route 22), and Delaware Water Gap (I-80).
