Well here’s a redevelopment project of sorts. According to the Courier-Post:
Reconstruction of the Maple Avenue Bridge over the NJTransit Atlantic City rail line in Pennsauken will begin on or before Feb. 7, the New Jersey Department of Transportation announced today. NJDOT expects the construction to last about one year.
During construction, Maple Avenue will be closed at the bridge, blocking through traffic, NJDOT said. Suggested detour routes are Church Road to Haddonfield Roads to Maple Avenue for westbound traffic and Haddonfield Road to Church Road to Maple Avenue.
The new Maple Avenue Bridge will be raised 4 feet on the existing alignment to provide 20 feet clearance for the railroad below, NJDOT said. It will have a 12-foot travel lane, 12-foot shoulder and 6-foot sidewalk in each direction.
There are several bridges in the area. Is this the only bridge that will get a facelift? What is the fate of the old train bridge (tressell)? I’ve noticed they took a stretch of tracks out leading upto it.
Anybody have any info?
