Overview
The construction on
this project has now
been completed. |
The
New Jersey Department
of Transportation
(NJDOT) will make  improvements to
the Route 72 (Manahawkin
Bay) Henderson Memorial
Bridge, which links
the Borough of Ship
Bottom with Stafford
Township. This project
utilizes stimulus
funding made available
under the
American
Reinvestment and Recovery
Act (ARRA) and
is scheduled for completion
in May 2010.
|
The Dorland J. Henderson
Memorial Bridge forms
part of the only transportation
link for motor vehicles
and pedestrians between
Long Beach Island (LBI)
and the mainland. The
project will provide
needed repairs and
resurfacing to the
bridge and approach
roadways, and is anticipated
to add approximately
10 years to the
life of the bridge. |
|
Repairs
and improvements to
the bridge will take
place in stages,
with at least one
lane open to traffic
in each direction throughout
construction.
Staging
has been planned to
minimize impacts on
traffic. |
