The Delaware River-Turnpike Toll Bridge connects the Pennsylvania and New Jersey Turnpikes. A 5.7 mile long, six lane extension from the New Jersey Turnpike connects it to Interstate 276  in Pennsylvania. The original bridge had six 12 ' lanes with no median divider.

In 1988 the Pennsylvania Turnpike Control Commission re-decked the bridge and constructed a new concrete median barrier. The bridge's six lanes were reduced to four and emergency shoulders were added in each direction. Increases in traffic have prompted the proposals of several new bridge alternatives. The construction of a parallel span is expected to be completed in 2015.

20,000 tons of structural steel are used in the bridge and approaches		This is a view under the Pennsylvania side span of bridge.
