The deer somehow wandered onto the bridge's New Jersey-bound lower level just after 7:30 p.m. Saturday, requiring an immediate response.
All lower-level westbound lanes were temporarily closed while Port Authority officers assigned to the bridge teamed up with the TBAs
They "secured the deer safely" and brought the uninjured animal via a TBA flatbed to a safe location in the public park high above the bridge, Port Authority Public Information Officer Rudy King said.
All lanes were reopened by 8:30 p.m.
This came hours after tunnel and bridge agents rescued a wayward goose from the Lincoln Tunnel (see photo below).
