A historic bridge connecting a popular Bucks County town with New Jersey is showing its age and must close for needed repairs.⁠
⁠
The New Hope-Lambertville Toll-Supported Bridge closed Monday, Jan. 13, 2025, for at least two weeks so that a rusted 120-year-old pin that supports the span over the Delaware River could be repaired, according to the Delaware River Joint Toll Bridge Commission, which operates the bridge.⁠
⁠
The bridge could remained closed for up to two weeks, until Jan. 27, 2025, the DRJTBC said.⁠
⁠
"The uninterrupted bridge closure will enable work crews and engineers to replace a deteriorated 4-inch-diameter, 18-inch-long steel pin that supports a critical joint of 11 structural steel members on the bridge’s second truss span from the Pennsylvania side," the bridge commission said. "The 120-year-old pin has rusted and worn to the point where it poses a potential risk for failure under heavy load."⁠
