Fixing up so it doesn't fall down
Belfor Restorations was back again today to continue shoring up the property at 208-210 Locust Street. As recently as last Saturday it was thought that the front wall of the building was in danger of collapse, and emergency personnel and structural engineers were called to the scene to make an evaluation. Belfor worked that evening to construct bracing inside the building to support the front wall.
Bring a flashlight - Bridge lights will be off
Due to the infestation of mayflies on the Veterans Memorial Bridge and the problems associated with them, the Borough of Columbia, Wrightsville Borough and West Hempfield Township have agreed to turn off the lights on the bridge until further notice . Please make sure to bring a flashlight when traveling the bridge on foot. Please travel slowly by vehicle.
