Hopewell & Upper Deerfield Township, Cumberland County, New Jersey – Deerfield Road (CR 540) previously contained one lane in each direction and minimal shoulders on the approaches and across the bridge.
The project included widening to 40 feet by replacement of the existing 2-span reinforced concrete rigid frame structure. The bridge was constructed in 1924, and the existing deck geometry was inadequate per previous studies. The existing approach guiderail and concrete barrier curb across the bridge was also substandard.
CES was chosen by Cumberland County to provide services for the project that included surveying, preliminary design, alternative studies, final design, permitting, and bid documents for the bridge replacement.
