State urges W Washington Street Bridge fix or closure
PennDOT officials say the W Washington Street Bridge must close by January unless temporary improvements are made. A 3 ton load limit could stay for about two years, with a Falls Street bridge slated for 1974 completion and a new W Washington bridge cost estimate at 750000 dollars. Local leaders seek state aid as a temporary Bailey bridge option is offered at high rental cost.
