Point-No-Point Bridge, Railroad bridge in Newark, United States

The Point-No-Point Bridge spans the Passaic River between Newark and Kearny, featuring a movable single-leaf bascule design for maritime passage.

Built in 1901 by the Pennsylvania Railroad, this bridge created a vital connection to the rail yard at Harsimus Cove, reducing travel distance.

The bridge represents industrial engineering excellence in New Jersey, connecting two major transportation hubs through the Meadowlands region.

The bridge operates under US Coast Guard regulations, requiring four hours advance notice for vessels needing passage through its movable span.

Six reinforced concrete piers support the structure, established by twenty-six steel-cased drilled shafts measuring nine inches in diameter.

Location: New Jersey

GPS coordinates: 40.74150,-74.12140
