I-78 ramp in Somerset County reopens after $6.1M bridge replacement project

Yeah, this is some good road work news that you could use. So the NJDOT announced that they completed a project here. So this is King George's Road. The ramp to get onto 78 West has reopened. And they say this is part of a $6.1 million federally funded project. It reconstructed a bridge that goes over a tributary of the Dead River. Did not know that we had a river called that here in New Jersey, but we do. And it also upgraded the guardrail and repaved a portion of the highway. All three lanes of 78 were open through the majority of the construction. However, lanes did have to be shifted at some point. The ramp from King George Road southbound onto I-78 westbound was closed for about a year and drivers had to be detoured. So the project, the NJDOT announced that it was completed on Monday. So now traffic and getting around is back to normal here. We're in Warren Township, Lauren Dew, News 12 New Jersey.
