Outer Bridge Crossing --Any commuters out there that use this?
Is there construction going on there, that would make me want to avoid this route? I am seeing something that northbound exit ramp is CLOSED. True? certain hours?
TIA

I live on SI & I'm not aware of construction on the Outerbridge - Just the Bayonne. It could be true though. They would only close it late nights since that is a very heavily used bridge. You can always take the Goethals as an alternate (You would avoid the entire span of the 440 on SI if you do so) The Goethals would bring you right on to the SI Expressway.

Oh, I definitely want to know the answer to this. We have a Bar Mitzvah in Philly tomorrow, and are staying at my mom's in SI tonight then heading there early in the morning, over the Outerbridge, then back on Sunday.

Us too ALLL the way, on Saturday, it was HORRIBLE. Amtrak next time - regardless of cost (it's still cheaper)
ETA: The WAZE app is awesome, it took us off at exit 8 on the turnpike around the local streets and back on right past the construction. Save 1 HR of wait time!
