Officials are planning inspections of the Thomas A. Mathis drawbridge Wednesday, a process that will result in short closures that will likely delay traffic.
The Toms River Office of Emergency Management said a total of four closures will produce traffic backups for approx 10-15 minutes per closure.
There was no schedule provided of when the closures would take place.
"There should be about 4 closures today and it will be insured that traffic backup is alleviated before the next closure is initiated," a statement from the office said.
The Mathis bridge carries eastbound traffic from Toms River toward Seaside Heights.
