The bridge has three southbound and two northbound lanes but a recent traffic corridor study recommended the addition of a third northbound lane. Louis Berger Group, Michael Baker Jr, Parsons Brinkerhoff and RBA Group have been asked to submit their proposals by 29 September.

This proposal is part of a recently initiated 10 year US$526 million capital improvement programme. Other major projects under way include preliminary engineering and environmental assessment for the expansion of the I-95 Scudder Falls Bridge, deck replacement at the Route 202 New Hope-Lambertville Toll Bridge, and a major structural rehabilitation of the New Hope Lambertville non-toll bridge.

DRJTBC was formed by the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania and the state of New Jersey in 1934 and operates seven toll and 13 toll-supported bridges over the Delaware River from Trenton-Morrisville to the New York border.
