Full Notification

The new West Front Street Bridge (S-17) spanning the Swimming River between Middletown and Red Bank will be doing lane striping Monday and Tuesday overnight, weather permitting.

The bridge will be closed on Monday, May 16th at 7pm thru 7am on Tuesday and Tuesday May 17th at 7pm through 7am Wednesday. The bridge will remain closed for the striping.

The new bridge is 44-feet wide with two 12-foot travel lanes and four-foot shoulders and six-foot sidewalks in both directions. The new bridge provides approximately nine feet of vertical clearance above mean high water elevation; there will be approximately 72 feet of horizontal clearance within the navigable channel of the Swimming River.

The project is being funded by the Federal Highway Administration and NJDOT’s Transportation Trust Fund. The North Jersey Transportation Planning Authority is assisting with the project as well.
