Drawbridge Operation Regulations; Beach Thorofare, New Jersey

The Coast Guard is changing the regulations governing operation of the National Railroad Corporation (AMTRAK)/New Jersey Transit Rail Operation (NJTRO) drawbridge across the Beach Thorofare, New Jersey Intracoastal Waterway, mile 68.9, at Atlantic City, New Jersey. This change to the regulations will allow the bridge to be operated remotely from AMTRAK's Philadelphia office. This change is being made in an effort to combine bridgetender and dispatcher positions, enhance rail safety operations and reduce operating costs. This action will relieve AMTRAK of the burden of having a person constantly at the bridge to open the draw, and will still provide for the reasonable needs of navigation.
