Goethals Bridge
The Goethals Bridge is a vital transportation link connecting Staten Island in New York City to Elizabeth and Newark in New Jersey. Spanning the Arthur Kill waterway, it facilitates the movement of vehicles between New York and New Jersey, easing commutes and freight transport. Opened in 1928 and later expanded, the bridge is a key part of the region's infrastructure, supporting daily traffic flow for residents, commuters, and goods. Its design includes multiple lanes to accommodate increasing traffic, and it is maintained by transportation authorities to ensure safety and reliability.
