Lumberville – Raven Rock Bridge

The five-span suspension structure extends across the Delaware River, connecting two states through a pedestrian passage over original 1856 stone foundations.

Initially constructed as a covered timber bridge in 1856, the structure transformed into a pedestrian-only crossing after the Delaware River Joint Toll Bridge Commission rebuilt it in 1947.

The bridge forms a link between Pennsylvania and New Jersey communities, enabling residents and visitors to traverse the Delaware River for recreational activities and local exploration.

Located within the Delaware River region, the bridge provides access for pedestrians between Bull's Island Recreation Area in New Jersey and Lumberville in Pennsylvania.

Engineers from John A Roebling's Sons Company designed the current suspension structure, integrating modern engineering with nineteenth-century stone foundations for $75,000 in 1947.
