- CR 622 North Olden Avenue (CR 622), Bridge over Amtrak Initiated from the Bridge Management System, this project will replace the structurally deficient and functionally obsolete bridge, built in 1923. Roads & infrastructure · Proposed
- CR 626 Lincoln Ave/Chambers Street (CR 626), Bridge over Amtrak & Assunpink Creek Project will replace the Lincoln Avenue Bridge over Amtrak Northeast Corridor (NEC) rail line, an inactive rail yard, and Assunpink Creek. Proposed Improvements include the following listed: 1. Complete replacement of the structure to extend the life of the bridge, correct deficiencies, and meet current design requirements; 2. The structure will be replaced with steel multi-girders (structure depth of 51” and maximum girder spacing of 7’); 3. The vertical profile and pier locations will be revised to provide the required horizontal and vertical clearance over the railroad tracks; 4. Standard 12-foot wide lanes, 8-foot wide shoulders, which can be used by bicyclists and as a standard bicycle lane, and 6-foot wide sidewalks for pedestrians on structure; 5. Architectural treatments, such as stone facing, veneer or form liners; galvanized and powder coated steel; aesthetic parapet or railing treatments; colored concrete; decorative lighting; etc. are also being considered. No roadway widening is proposed. Easement agreements will be required for work that is performed outside of the existing right-of-way, such as grading and sidewalk repairs necessary to meet ADA compliance. Lincoln Avenue serves as an important connector across the aforementioned physical barriers and is the first crossing outside of the central business district of Trenton City. The structure, which was built in 1931 and reconstructed in 1965, was rated ‘serious’, or 3 on a 0 to 9 scale, with 9 being excellent condition and 0 being failed condition/closed facility. Despite its rating of 3, the bridge is still safe for travel. The rating is primarily due to the condition of the superstructure, which suffers from severely rusted steel throughout and large areas of spalled and delaminated concrete on the deck. The County performed short-term fixes on the structure including lighting, deck repairs and an asphalt overlay until the structure could be replaced. The fund type 'OTHER-DVRPC' reflects a commitment by Mercer County of Local County Aid, Local Aid State Infrastructure Bank, and/or Mercer County general funds to the project.

- Trenton Amtrak Bridges 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. Roads & infrastructure · Proposed
