A historic landmark is making way for the future. As the 234-foot high towers of the original WALK Bridge come down, a major milestone has been reached in the replacement of this critical Northeast Corridor crossing. The removal of the high towers marks a significant step forward in replacing a 130-year-old structure with a more reliable, resilient rail connection serving thousands of passengers every day.
