Overnight Bridge Closure and Daytime Delays Expected

The following information is from the County of Cape May regarding the Ingram’s Thorofare Bridge, the “high span” bridge on Avalon Boulevard in Middle Township:

On Wednesday and Thursday nights, March 10th and 11th 2021, the Ingram’s Thorofare Bridge will be closed between the hours of 7:00pm thru 5:00am due to ongoing construction.

As a result, Avalon Boulevard (C.R. 601) will be closed to thru traffic during these hours. The roadway and bridge will re-open after those hours and remain open thereafter.

In addition, during the hours of 9:00am thru 5:00pm on March 10th and March 11th, there will be brief times when the active lane of the bridge will be closed for a period of no more than 15 minutes in order to allow for the discharge of concrete trucks. Traffic backups will be minimized thru the use of traffic directors who will override the existing traffic signals in order to balance traffic waits, however, motorists are advised that there may be longer than usual wait times during those days.
