The Lower Hack Bridge was formerly the Delaware, Lackawanna & Western Railroad bridge and is now operated by NJ Transit. Construction began in 1927 and was completed in 1928. The greater height of the bridge above the waterway required the railroad to elevate more than a mile of track on the east and west sides of the river. The railroad laid its tracks atop high earthen embankments on both sides of the river to carry the tracks up to the level of the bridge. |
