Before the Delaware Memorial Bridge was built, US 40 used a ferry to connect between Penns Grove and Wilmington. While the ferry dock is gone on the Delaware side, there are the remnants on the New Jersey side. NJ 48 used to extend as NJH 48 to the dock, but has since been truncated.
Remnants of the ferry dock and the truss bridges used to connect the dock with Penns Grove.
