The Riverton-Belvidere Bridge is a bridge crossing the Delaware River. It connects Belvidere, New Jersey with Riverton, Pennsylvania. There is no toll for crossing on either side.
History
The original bridge was a covered wooden structure built in the nineteenth century. It was destroyed by a flood on October 10, 1903. The following year, the current bridge, a four-span Warren-type truss bridge was constructed in place of the destroyed bridge.
