Main Street, Lebanon (Former US 22)

US 22 (and its predecessors, NJH 28 and NJSHR 9) used to run through downtown Lebanon. A bypass of the town would be built, diverting the busy highway away from the town center.

There are two old bridges in Lebanon that indicate the road was built as a state highway. The inscriptions are more visible on the western bridge, but the eastern bridge also has them.

An inscription for NJSHR 9 on the western bridge.

The western bridge was built in 1921, per the inscription.

Onto the eastern bridge. Interestingly, this bridge was built in 1926.
