The famous painting of George Washington crossing the Delaware would have lacked a good deal of its drama if the Delaware River Port Authority of Pennsylvania and New Jersey (DRPA) had been around in 1776. DRPA keeps commuters (and leaders of revolutionary armies) out of small boats by operating the Benjamin Franklin, Betsy Ross, Commodore Barry, and Walt Whitman toll bridges over the Delaware River, which divides Pennsylvania from New Jersey. Bridge operations account for almost 90% of the agency's revenue. Through its Port Authority Transit Corp. (PATCO) subsidiary, DRPA operates the PATCO Speedline, a rail service that links downtown Philadelphia with communities on the New Jersey side of the Delaware.
