People who normally use the Route 71 bridge over the Shark River between Avon and Belmar that’s been stuck in the open position since early March will get a free shuttle bus to ride until the span is fixed.
The free ride between the business districts of Belmar and Avon-by-the-Sea was announced by the state Department of Transportation and will start Wednesday morning. It will operate until the bridge is fixed.
