Southbound Route 1 bridge set to open at Route 16

After years of work, the southbound Route 1 bridge over Route 16 will open to traffic Monday, April 21. This switch signifies the start of Phase 4 of construction, which is anticipated to last until fall 2025.

After the switch, southbound Route 1 motorists will drive on the recently completed bridge. Northbound Route 1 traffic will continue with the same pattern. 

The ramps on the west side of Route 1 will open to facilitate movements from southbound Route 1 to Route 16, and for Route 16 drivers to access southbound Route 1. 

Southbound Route 1 traffic will no longer have a traffic signal, but the traffic signal will remain for northbound Route 1 motorists and at the Route 16 intersection.
