The closure is affecting both eastbound and westbound traffic on the bridge, which is currently undergoing construction. The span will be closed for “several hours” due to an investigation, the Ocean County Sheriff’s Department said just after 11 a.m.

There was no immediate word as to whether anyone was injured in the accident.
