Ben Franklin Bridge Closed Sunday A.M.
A cancer bike-a-thon shuts down the bridge for about an hour.
Thinking of taking the Ben Franklin into Philadelphia early Sunday? Think again.
The Ben Franklin Bridge will be closed July 10 from 6:30 to 7:45 a.m. for the American Cancer Society’s Bike-a-Thon, which raises money for cancer research.
The annual 62-mile race starts at the Ben Franklin and ends at the Buena Vista Camping Park in Cumberland County. There are also shorter rides starting at Cherry Hill High School East and Hammonton Lake Park in Hammonton.
