Some 18,000 vehicles cross the Route 441 bridge over Chickies Creek near Marietta every day.
Many of those are heavy trucks carrying waste to the county incinerator in Conoy Township or pharmaceuticals from the Glaxosmithkline facility in Marietta.
Yet the 85-year-old bridge on River Road is listed as "structurally deficient" by state Transportation Department inspectors and is one of 46 in the county on a list facing weight-limit restrictions.
This should put the 441 project on hold!! The trucking route is done until the bridge is fixed!
ReplyDeleteThat makes sense.
