George,
I notice you have been asking about the status for a ton of bridges in Pennsylvania on this website. If a bridge has been demolished or replaced or even is at risk for demolition... and anybody who moderates this website knows... it would be noted on the pages for the bridge. There is a "Future Prospects" section and a "Status" section where relevant information would appear. Sometimes visitors add information to the forum at the bottom of the page. In regards to highway bridges in Pennsylvania, I try to keep both BridgeHunter and my website at www.historicbridges.org up to date with the current status of bridges. However, due to the demolition rate of bridges in Pennsylvania, often bridges that we think are still there have been demolished. Simply put, if you are visiting bridges in Pennsylvania, you are likely to waste at least some time visiting bridges that are gone. Its just how it goes.
In regards to this particular bridge on Cedar Street, I can tell you it was still standing as shown here when I personally visited the bridge on October 21, 2013.
does anyone know the current status of this structurally deficient bridge?please let me know.thanks.
my cousin bought the feedmill with about 18 acres in 1994 or so(got flooded in 1996....not previously in the 100 year flood plane)I believe the bridge is the end of his property line but not sure. He has rehabbed the feedmill as his primary residence but the 3 story stone mill still needs work.
Thanks :) I may try to integrate this into a winter trip because it looks like it might be easier to photo with leaves off the trees.
Take Williamson Rd. west. Make right on road between Bullitt Rd. and the bridge (on Williamson Road). It looks private, but I don't recall a no trespassing sign. You will see the road for the vehicular bridge on left. Good luck.
I am curious how the access to this bridge is. Can you drive right up to it? Which direction should one approach from? Did you have to deal with any landowners around the bridge?
Nathan,i admit I got carried away with asking about bridges in Pa and other states.Over time though I found out that by keeping up with these bridge via media and this site I can actually find out information without asking the same questions about these bridges.As for PennDOT destroying historic bridges we actually need leadership that has a backbone which we don't have presently.Remember,PennDOT is funded by the taxpayers so the public does have a say.Elected officials in other words should put up or shut up.That's how we keep historic bridges and don't lose them.This is not a politically based gripe.Just letting people know what we face here in Pa.If I am wrong I will admit it.
