Emergency construction will require the closure of the Goethals Bridge westbound lanes from 10 p.m. Thursday, January 12 to 5 a.m. Friday, January 13.
The emergency construction is required to repair drainage issues along part of the roadway along the westbound approach to the Goethals Bridge.

The overnight Goethals Bridge closure is not expected to result in significant delays.
