Ingram’s Thorofare Bridge along Avalon Boulevard will be restricted to a single lane of alternating traffic until May 27.

Motorists will be able to cross the bridge, but travel will be limited to a single lane as workers apply a deck sealant on the bridge prior to opening it to two-way traffic permanently. Due to the curing time associated with the sealant, travel over the newly treated areas will be restricted.

During the closure of one of the bridge lanes, traffic will alternate around the construction zone and be controlled by a temporary traffic signal. Motorists should expect delays, according to a county news release.

The bridge will be reopened to two-way traffic at the end of the work day on Friday and remain open over the weekend. On Monday, May 24, the lane restriction will again be in place and remain in place until noon on Thursday, May 27, at which time the bridge will be reopened for two-way traffic going forward.
