  • Purpose Identified Needs
    Sixth Avenue Bridge Over the Passaic River Local Concept Development Study Purpose & Need and Goals & Objectives Passaic County, New Jersey Purpose The overall purpose of this project is to address structural, geometric, and operational deficiencies of the Sixth Avenue Bridge (Structure 1600‐012) over the Passaic River and to provide safe, efficient, and reliable passage for all modes of transportation. Identified Needs Bridge and Roadway Deficiencies The Sixth Avenue Bridge is fracture and scour critical, and functionally obsolete due to inadequate deck geometry. Originally built in 1900 and partially replaced with a temporary steel truss superstructure in 1987, the bridge requires extensive rehabilitation or replacement to remain functional. The overall condition of the bridge is fair, the temporary superstructure is fair, the deck is good, and the substructure is fair based on the latest bridge inspection report. The bridge roadway does not comply with current design standards. Numerous elements such as shoulder width and stopping sight distance are substandard and result in inefficient traffic operation and insufficient turning radii at the western intersection. The structure is classified as fracture critical due to the non‐redundant continuous steel ACROW panel trusses at the north and south sides of the bridge. Based on the 2005 Stage II Scour Evaluation Report, the bridge is also scour critical. The underwater inspection identified underwater bridge components as being in fair condition due to wide cracks, missing mortar, areas of broken stones in all the masonry piers, exposed footings with heavy scaling and missing aggregate of all piers. The temporary superstructure is in fair condition due to the light rust throughout the upper and lower chords of the truss.

To me it is one of the most interesting pools of life I know. There is nothing in Paterson, most people will tell you, save silk mills and five-and-ten-cent stores. It is true. Yet to me it is a beautiful city in the creative sense—a place in which to stage a great novel. These mills—have you ever seen them? They line the Passaic river and various smooth canals that branch out from it. It was no doubt the well-known waterfall and rapids of this river that originally drew manufacturers to Paterson, supplied the first mills with water, and gave the city its start. Then along came steam and all of the wonders of modern electrically-driven looms ….
