Turnback plan for Eckert Bridge Road advances in Slippery Rock area
Popovich and Marilyn Ecoff of PennDOT outline a municipal turnback program for 4.28 miles of Eckert Bridge Road from U.S. 422 to Breakneck Bridge in Slippery Rock Township. The deal would pay the township to repair and maintain the road with annual support of 2,500 dollars per mile, while Eckert Bridge would stay state owned and Breakneck Bridge would need separate funding. The Perry Township supervisors already took 2.2 miles of the route and received 191,977 dollars. No firm cost figures are yet available and local officials await a formal decision.
