is planning months of road and camera improvements around the I-78 bridge between Pennsylvania and New Jersey. The actual work itself is expected to begin in spring 2024 and last the year.
The commission on Monday awarded a $2.8 million contract to outside engineering consultants Arora and Associates of Lawrenceville, New Jersey, to design the project. The eventual work is to include milling and paving the New Jersey side from the river to Exit 3 for Phillipsburg, installing shoulder rumble strips, restriping the highway, and replacing the camera system on both sides of the bridge.
In its announcement, the commission said it is “optimistic” that two-lane travel can be maintained in both directions during the daytime, and one-lane travel both directions at night, when the project gets underway next year. The project also will consider alternative pavement designs to be more resistant to truck traffic. The commission said trucks comprise 30% of that crossing’s traffic, about double the average of all the commission’s eight toll bridges, from Milford-Montague at New Jersey’s northernmost reaches to Trenton.
