Prospect Street Bridge Over NJTransit

This project involves replacement of the Prospect Street Bridge superstructure and capping the existing abutments. Prospect Street will be re-profiled from the intersection of Prospect Street and Elliott Street to the intersection of Prospect Street and Blackwell Street. Extensive utilities will require accommodation or relocation to accomplish the project. Coordination with NJ Transit will be required for designing catenary structures to detach the wires from the bridge, re-profiling catenary wires, and relocating railroad signal and communication lines. The project also includes survey in the active track bed, cultural resources study, drainage, highway lighting and traffic engineering. Traffic will be detoured during construction to facilitate the accelerated construction of the replacement bridge.
