Bear Tavern Road was a historic route of Continental troops to Trenton, where Washington achieved his famous victory over Rahl's Hessian Brigade of the British Army on December 26, 1776. In colonial times it was known as The Lower, or River Road, although the existing River Road was not laid out until 1834. The road was constructed in 1930 by the Mercer County Board of Chosen Freeholders.
