BRIDGE CLOSURE-US ROUTE 209 OVER BUSHKILL CREEK-The US Department of the Interior informs us that the bridge over Bushkill Creek on US Route 209 in Delaware Water Gap National Recreation Area will be closed to all vehicles starting on July 9, 2009.  The bridge will reopen no later that July 27, 2009.  The closure is necessary to accommodate construction on the bridge. 

During the closure, all vehicles, except those exceeding 15 tons Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR), will follow a detour route using Winona Falls Road, East/West Sugar Mountain Road and Bushkill Falls Road. 

Vehicles with a GVWR in excess of 15 tones (30,000 lbs GVWR) will be restricted from using US Route 209 through Delaware Water Gap National Recreation Area during the entire bridge closure.  The designated detour route, described above, will not accommodate vehicles in excess of 15 tons GVWR; vehicles that meet this description must find alternate routes.

The National Park Service regrets any inconvenience this may cause.  These essential repairs will enhance everyone's safety.
