Rail Bridge May Get Repairs After FOX 29 Investigates Report

Posted: Updated:
LOGAN TWP., N.J. -

A South Jersey rail bridge may be getting repairs after FOX 29 investigates pressed for answers about its safety.

FOX 29 Investigates' Jeff Cole says state Senate President Steve Sweeney says he'll soon fire off a letter to Conrail demanding it repair the rail bridge.

Sweeney's pledge comes after FOX 29 Investigates showed him video of crumbling concrete and exposed metal rods.

On Monday, the feds joined Conrail in stating the bridge is safe but, as Jeff Cole reports, that's not enough for Sweeney.

You can watch the story in the video above.

    It was a gloomy Sunday as the whole area remain socked in with low clouds & fog, drizzle and scattered showers.

    The weather remains unsettled through most of the work week. The difference is that it will really warm up -- temperatures soar into the 80s by Tuesday.  That mild and humid air mass will fuel afternoon thunderstorms.

    By Thursday a cold front moves by bringing more rain.  It will also bring drier and cooler weather by Friday as we finally clear out.
