Winant Avenue Bridge
The Winant Avenue Bridge is a vehicular movable bridge spanning the Hackensack River in Bergen County, New Jersey from its mouth at Newark Bay. Built in 1934, and also known as the Route 46 Hackensack River Bridge and S46 Bridge, it carries U.S. Route 46 (US 46) in Little Ferry and Ridgefield Park. Owned and operated by the New Jersey Department of Transportation (NJDOT), the double leaf bascule bridge is located on a navigable reach. While there have been no requests since 1978, the Code of Federal Regulations last amended n 1999 requires 24-hour notice to be opened.〔〔

The bridge has been minimally altered since its construction and is eligible for individual listing on the National Register of Historic Places (NRHP).〔
==Background==
The bridge is located at a crossing established by the pre-colonial Hackensack tribe. As its name suggests, Liitle Ferry had been the site of a ferry crossing since the colonial era, with a rope-towed boat operating between 1659 and 1826. The first bridge was built in 1812.〔 The Bergen Turnpike was an important road between nearby Hackensack and the Hudson Waterfront at Hoboken. Ferry service was augmented with rail service in the early 1890s by the New York, Susquehanna and Western Railway (NYSW), the tracks of which pass under the S46.〔 Soon after the predecessor to the Public Service began trolley service.〔 A vehicular crossing was created in 1934 with the construction of the road that would become Route 46. The bridge was constructed as part of the expansion of the state highway system in the 1920s and 1930 to carry State Highway Route 6.〔 At its western end, the Little Ferry Circle was built in 1933 in conjunction with bridge.
