The Portal Bridge is a two-track moveable swing-span railroad bridge over the Hackensack River in Kearny and Secaucus, New Jersey, United States, just west of Secaucus Junction. Owned and operated by Amtrak as part of the Northeast Corridor, and used by NJ Transit, it is considered the busiest train span in the Western Hemisphere, carrying between 150,000 and 200,000 passengers per day on approximately 450 daily trains. Originally opened in 1910, the bridge was built by the Pennsylvania Railroad in conjunction with service to the newly constructed Pennsylvania Station in New York City. It is 961 feet long. The bridge clearance of 23 feet requires it to swing open to allow even small commercial boats to pass underneath it. By the 2000s, the Portal Bridge was considered obsolete and train speeds are limited to 60 miles per hour. Plans to replace the bridge is the first phase of the Gateway Project. As of March 2019, the estimated cost for replacing the bridge was at least $1.5 billion. After initially refusing to provide any funding for the project, the Trump administration allowed the project to move forward in February 2020.
