When: 11 a.m. Thursday, March 27 (In the event of inclement weather, the photo op will be rescheduled for 11 a.m. Friday, March 28.)
Where: Near the center point of the new walkway on the recently rehabilitated New-Hope-Lambertville Toll-Supported Bridge, which directly links the commercial centers of New Hope and Lambertville.
Who: New Hope Mayor Laurence Keller and Lambertville Mayor Andrew Nowick will unveil new walkway railing signage produced and installed by Delaware River Joint Toll Bridge Commission maintenance personnel.
Other Attendees:
- Commission Chairman Aladar G. Komjathy
- Commission Executive Director Joseph J. Resta
- Greater Lambertville Chamber of Commerce President Liz Pacelli
- Greater Lambertville Chamber of Commerce Vice President Carolyn Gadbois
- Greater New Hope Chamber of Commerce President Michael Sklar
- Greater New Hope Chamber of Commerce Vice President Mary Brashier
Note: Due to the composition of the bridge’s new slip-resistant foam-core fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) walkway panels, paint will not adhere well to the surface. As a result, the walkway’s railing will be utilized to connote the state line’s location. Two railing sections and one support post are colored differently for this purpose. Signs will be installed at the location to mark the borderline of New Jersey and Pennsylvania on the bridge. Dividend: the new state-line designation will be more conducive for taking family and group photographs.
