PENNSAUKEN -- Service on the Atlantic City Rail Line between Philadelphia and Cherry Hill will be suspended for two weeks after a trash track struck a rail bridge, NJ Transit reported.

The truck struck the bridge at River Road near Derousse Avenue in Pennsauken on Friday afternoon.

Inspectors determined that the tracks sustained extensive damage and a construction firm has been called in to assist with repairs.

Substitute bus service will run between Philadelphia and Cherry Hill while repairs are completed, NJ Transit reported.

Also, PATCO, River Line light rail and all NJ Transit South Jersey bus routes will cross-honor Atlantic City Rail Line tickets.

Rail service will continue as normal between Cherry Hill and Atlantic City.

A report from 6ABC described the vehicle that struck the bridge as a boom truck belonging to Robinson Waste Disposal of Bellmawr and indicated that the driver didn't know the boom was extended when he tried to pass under the rail bridge.

The truck driver was issued a summons for careless driving, NJ Transit reported.

The agency did not indicate how much the repairs would cost.
