99362 | Trenton Amtrak Bridges (Trenton City, Mercer County)

The three Orphan Bridges carrying Chestnut Avenue, East State and Monmouth Streets over Amtrak are in poor condition. All of the bridges are structurally deficient and functionally obsolete. The bridges and approach roadways include a variety of substandard design elements, including substandard vertical and horizontal clearances, intersection sight distances and unprotected bridge girders. The City of Trenton supports the current two bridge option, which replaces East State Street and Monmouth Street Bridges. Chestnut Avenue Bridge will be removed/demolished. The two bridges will be replaced with single-span, ABC (Accelerated Bridge Construction) systems. Retaining walls are included in the project to minimize impacts to properties. Catenaries will be removed from the existing bridges and up to six new catenary structures will be constructed to re-profile the electric traction facilities.
