The project, scheduled for completion for summer of 2009, is valued at 95 million dollars. It involves widening the existing 1,325-ft 5-lane structure to include a third northbound lane providing an enhanced traffic flow into Trenton. The bridge will be totally rebuilt from the top of the piers up, in three major stages. The existing steel deck beams and other structural components will be refurbished, cleaned, and repainted.
