Carrying vehicular traffic, the roadway is designated County Route 508.〔(NJDOT County Route 508 ) Straight Line Diagram by the New Jersey Department of Transportation〕 The span is a rim-bearing Pratt thru truss swing span supported on ashlar substructure with concrete caps originally built by the American Bridge Company. It opened in 1913 and underwent significant rehabilitation in 1981. It is listed on the New Jersey Register of Historic Places (ID#3093) The bridge was re-lamped in 2012.〔(Newark Emergency Contract Award )〕 The bridge's electric motor was damaged by Hurricane Sandy in 2012, requiring replacement.〔http://www.theobserver.com/?p=16103〕 Like the other vehicular swing bridges in Newark, the Jackson Street Bridge and the Clay Street Bridge,〔 it crosses over the tidal navigable portion of the river.〔 and is required to open with 4-hour notice.

In 1790 the state legislature decided that "public good would be served by a wide road from Paulus Hook to the Newark Courthouse". By 1795 a bridge over the Hackensack long and another over the Passaic long were built creating an uninterrupted toll road connection. The road between them is known as the Newark Turnpike.
