Rahway River Bridge, Railway bridge in Rahway, US

The Rahway River Bridge spans 180 feet across the waterway with a closed-spandrel arch design made of stone and concrete materials.

The Pennsylvania Railroad constructed this bridge around 1915 during a major project to elevate tracks on the mainline through New Jersey.

The bridge serves as an integral connection point for the Northeast Corridor, linking communities through passenger rail services between New York and Philadelphia.

The structure carries multiple rail lines including Amtrak's Northeast Regional, Keystone Service, and New Jersey Transit's Northeast Corridor and North Jersey Coast Lines.

Engineers discovered during construction that 100 cubic yards of fill materials sank into the marshland overnight, requiring specialized foundation solutions.
