The Veterans Memorial Bridge on Burrstone Road over the North-South Arterial was rededicated today.

Assemblyman Anthony Brindisi says a plaque memorializing veterans was in poor condition and was not easy for people using the bridge to see.

Brindisi says the state DOT agreed to refurbish the 33-year old plaque

The new plaque unveiled today is on a concrete base that's easier to see and road signs marking the bridge are now on both sides of the structure.

Meanwhile, students in Proctor High School's NJROTC Program have pledged to adopt the area around the plaque.
