None of the streetcar facilities were ever placed in service, as Public Service ran no cars across the bridge from its opening until the company abandoned its Camden streetcar system in 1932 after that, the tracks were removed, and the space was converted to vehicular lanes. Streetcar stations were also built in the bridge's anchorages. The tracks were built to the nonstandard broad gauge of the Public Service Corporation of New Jersey's Camden streetcar system the design called for the streetcars to cross the bridge from Camden to Philadelphia, enter an underground terminal beneath the bridge's west entrance plaza, and return to Camden via the opposite track. The bridge originally included six vehicle lanes and two streetcar tracks on the main deck, with provision for a rapid transit track in each direction outboard of the deck's stiffening trusses, which rise above the deck rather than lie beneath it. The bridge was closed to vehicles on July 1, 2001, to allow pedestrians to celebrate its 75th anniversary.
The name was changed to "Benjamin Franklin Bridge" in 1955, as a second Delaware River suspension bridge connecting Philadelphia and New Jersey was under construction ( Walt Whitman Bridge). At completion, its 1,750-foot (533-meter) span was the world's longest for a suspension bridge, a distinction it held until the opening of the Ambassador Bridge in 1929. The bridge opened to traffic on July 1, 1926, three days ahead of its scheduled opening on the nation's 150th anniversary.
Salkind, of Philadelphia, which also painted the Golden Gate Bridge. The bridge was originally painted by a commercial painting company owned by David A. At the peak of construction, 1,300 people worked on the bridge, and 15 died during its construction. The chief engineer of the bridge was Polish-born Ralph Modjeski, the design engineer was Leon Moisseiff, the supervising architect was Paul Philippe Cret, and the construction engineer was Montgomery B. To find a permanent solution, the Delaware River Bridge Joint Commission (now the Delaware River Port Authority) was created in 1919. None of these proposals were constructed.
A later proposal by John Alexander Low Waddell employed helical approaches to avoid purchasing expensive land for approaches to a high-level suspension bridge. Then, in 1868, a committee of Philadelphia and Camden interests proposed a unique design with two parallel low-level drawbridge spans which would allow ships to pass in stages without interrupting traffic across the bridge. Trautwine proposed a four-span suspension bridge in 1851. Plans for a bridge to augment the ferries across the Delaware River began as early as 1818, when one plan envisioned using Smith Island, a narrow island off the Philadelphia shore that was removed in 1893.
