The 2,465-foot-long (751 m) bridge is a multiple span dual roadway with a steel plate structure.

There is a pedestrian sidewalk on the south side of the New Jersey-bound section of the bridge, separated from motor vehicles with a concrete divider.

The pedestrian walkway on the Delaware Water Gap Toll Bridge connects Pennsylvania's northern terminus of the Appalachian Trail with New Jersey's southern end.

The Delaware Water Gap National Recreation Area straddles both sides of the river near the bridge; Worthington State Forest is located along the bridge's New Jersey side.

A six-lane toll plaza, one of which is an Express E-ZPass lane, is located on the Pennsylvania side of the bridge, serving westbound traffic only.
