*from ‘fort lee’ (NJ) to ‘upper manhattan’ (NY)*

*known informally as the GW Bridge, the GWB, the GW, or the George*
.
*the george washington bridge – – is a ‘double-decked suspension bridge’ spanning the ‘hudson river’ between the ‘washington heights’ neighborhood of ‘manhattan’ in ‘new york city’ and (‘fort lee’ / ‘new jersey’)*
.
(as of 2015, it carried over 106 million vehicles per year, making it the world’s busiest motor vehicle bridge)
(it is owned by the “port authority of new york and new jersey”, a ‘bi-state government agency’ that operates several ‘bridges’, ‘tunnels’, and ‘airports’, as well as ‘marine seaports’, and the ‘PATH rapid transit system’)
(the bridge, an integral conduit within the ‘New York metropolitan area’, has an upper level that carries four lanes in each direction and a lower level with three lanes in each direction, for a total of 14 lanes of travel)
(the ‘speed limit’ on the bridge is 45 mph (72 km/h), though congestion frequently slows traffic on both weekdays and weekends)
(the bridge’s upper level also carries pedestrian and bicycle traffic)
(‘Interstate 95’ (I-95) and ‘U.S. Route 1/9’ (US 1/9) cross the river via the bridge)
(‘US 46’, which lies entirely within New Jersey, terminates halfway across the bridge at the state border with ‘New York’)
.
(at its ‘eastern terminus’ in ‘new york city’, the bridge connects with the ‘trans-manhattan expressway’ (part of ‘I-95’ + connecting to the ‘cross bronx expressway’))
