About the Manayunk Bridge Lights

Once the Manayunk Bridge Bike and Pedestrian Trail was complete, the usage became immediately significant and a demand from the public was now for lights at night.  Without lights the gates were closed at dark and opened in the morning, blocking commuters and recreational bicyclists from using the bridge. 

A project has been ongoing and will start soon, since the remainder of the funding has now been secured. Once the lighting is complete, the gates will remain open for use.
