1908 North Jersey Coast Line Bridge over the Raritan River at Perth Amboy, NJ

(no Bridge Hunter?; Satellite)

Federal funds of  $446,312,465 were awarded in 2014 to help pay for the $595m that is needed to replace this bridge because it was damaged by 2012's Superstorm Sandy. The new bridge is being designed to better handle hurricanes. The replacement will have a lift span. [njtransietresilienceprogram, MassTransitMag]

"River Draw, which first opened to rail service in 1908, was wholly submerged during Sandy, Murphy [the governor] said. The water that washed over the bridge knocked the rails out of alignment, damaged bearings and washed out the supportive embankment, he said....George Harms Construction Co., Inc. of Farmingdale was awarded a $247.9 million contract for the initial construction phase earlier this year.

I think this is the other end of the same bridge.
