Outerbridge Crossing, Cantilever bridge in Perth Amboy, United States
The Outerbridge Crossing extends 8,200 feet across the Arthur Kill waterway, connecting Perth Amboy in New Jersey to Staten Island in New York.
The Port Authority of New York constructed this steel bridge between 1925 and 1928, naming it after their first chairman, Eugenius Harvey Outerbridge.
The bridge joins two distinct regions, linking the industrial zones of New Jersey with the residential communities of Staten Island through routes 440.
Vehicles crossing eastbound toward New York pay tolls through E-ZPass systems or license plate recognition, with rates varying between peak and off-peak hours.
Engineers designed the structure with two main towers supporting a 1,600-foot central span, allowing large vessels to pass underneath through the Arthur Kill channel.
