Riegelsville Bridge, Suspension bridge in Riegelsville, Pennsylvania and New Jersey, United States.
The Delaware River bridge extends 577 feet with four towers supporting multiple short suspension spans connected by steel wire ropes and double-warren stiffening trusses.
The John A. Roebling Sons Company constructed this bridge in 1904 after a devastating flood destroyed the previous wooden covered structure from 1837.
The bridge represents the engineering methods of the Roebling company, which applied similar techniques in constructing the Brooklyn Bridge in New York City.
The structure maintains a weight limit of 3 tons, accommodating approximately 3,200 vehicles daily while providing separate walkways for pedestrians crossing between states.
The bridge incorporates an uncommon design featuring multiple short suspension spans instead of a single long span typically found in suspension bridges.
