DOVER - The state has awarded a $515,536 grant towards the replacement of the Blackwell Street bridge.
The Local Bridges Fund is a $47.3 million program funded through the Transportation Trust Fund (TTF), which provides funding for each of New Jersey’s 21 counties for the improvement of county bridges. The grants are intended to help counties, as part of its Statewide Capital Investment Strategy, focus on bridges under the jurisdiction of the counties with an emphasis on repair, reconstruction and replacement of those bridges with the greatest structural deficiencies.
