Cape May County announced that the Townsends Inlet Bridge connecting Sea Isle City and Avalon is expected to reopen to traffic about 6 p.m. Thursday.
The final phase of construction activity for the bridge is being completed. Once the traffic striping and construction cleanup are completed, the bridge will open.
There will be no tolls collected to cross the bridge upon opening Thursday and throughout the weekend. Toll collection will resume on Monday, July 29, the county said.
The bridge is reopening after a 10-month shutdown for a major reconstruction project that replaced seven deteriorated spans on the Avalon side.
