Morgan Draw, Railway bridge in Middlesex County, United States

Morgan Draw railway bridge extends over Cheesequake Creek between Sayreville and Laurence Harbor, featuring six spans and a 79-foot primary section.

The bridge, engineered by Harry L. Thomas and constructed by Scherzer Rolling Lift Bridge Company, began operations in 1912 as part of regional rail development.

The structure represents a key component of New Jersey's industrial advancement, supporting the North Jersey Coast Line's transportation network between major stations.

The bridge opens on signal for marine traffic, providing 3 feet of clearance when closed and accommodating two electrified tracks for train passage.

During Hurricane Sandy in 2012, the bridge endured substantial damage from storm surge, leading to extensive reconstruction efforts to restore operations.
