Wayne County- After a recent inspection, a 15 ton/27 combination weight restriction was placed on SR 652 (Narrowsburg Bridge) over the Delaware River. Along with the weight restriction, repairs are scheduled for the bridge, beginning in mid-March. From mid-March until the end of May, the bridge will be open to a single lane of traffic during the day, controlled by flaggers. At the end of each day, the bridge will be opened to two-lanes of traffic, but the weight restriction will remain in place. After the repairs are complete on one side of the bridge (approximately mid-May), traffic will be moved to the repaired side of the bridge and the weight restriction will be lifted. However, the bridge will remain a single-lane crossing, controlled by a traffic signal, until at least 2015, when permanent repairs are scheduled to begin on the bridge.
