New Jersey-bound traffic will be detoured off the New Hope-Lambertville Toll-Supported Bridge for up to two weeks.
The detour will start Monday, Sept. 15, according to the Delaware River Joint Toll Bridge Commission.
The detours are scheduled for 6 a.m. to 6 p.m. on weekdays only.
The bridge will remain open to two-way traffic during nights and on weekends.
The bridge will also remain open to Pennsylvania-bound traffic at all times, officials said.
The pedestrian walkway is expected to remain in service without interruption.
According to the commission, the detour is necessary for a contractor to install a temporary under-bridge platform. The platform will be used to inspect and potentially repair electrical components on the bridge.
The installation will take place from the bridge’s upstream lane, which will force a shift of Pennsylvania-bound traffic into the downstream lane. New Jersey-bound traffic will be detoured to the non-tolled northbound direction at the nearby New Hope-Lambertville (Route 202) Toll Bridge. The Pennsylvania-bound traffic will not be tolled.
