HUDSON COUNTY – Beginning next March, the Pulaski Skyway will undergo a major resurfacing of the 81-year-old bridge.
The New Jersey Turnpike Authority has announced that it will open a lane to help alleviate northbound traffic when work crews begin the two-year renovation.
The Turnpike Authority has announced that it will open a shoulder along I-78 in Hudson Country beginning in March 2014. That shoulder will be used as a northbound traffic lane to ease congestion that many local officials believe could force more cars on local city streets, particularly along Jersey City’s West Side, during the renovation.
Work is already being done to convert this shoulder to a lane next year and the conversion is expected to be completed before the renovation project begins next year.
Some relief in sight for north-bound Pulaski Skyway drivers during two-year closure
