Betsy Ross Bridge

The Betsy Ross Bridge is a prominent steel truss bridge that spans the Delaware River, connecting Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, to Pennsauken, New Jersey. With an initial investment of $102.3 million, the bridge was constructed between June 12, 1969, and April 30, 1976, and currently accommodates approximately 7.3 million vehicles annually.

Stretching over 8,485 feet in length and featuring six lanes for vehicular traffic, the Betsy Ross Bridge serves as a vital transportation link between the two states. Its notable features include a 90-foot width, a navigable channel width of 400 feet, and a navigable channel depth of 40 feet. With its durable urethane alkyd paint and asphalt roadway surface, the bridge stands as a testament to engineering excellence and efficient connectivity.
