Lane closures planned on Route 30 bridge over Susquehanna
The Route 30 bridge over the Susquehanna River will have lane closures next month so workers can conduct a routine bridge inspection, according to the state Department of Transportation.
Between May 1 and May 13, PennDOT will restrict traffic on the Wright's Ferry Bridge. Lane closures will take place between 9 a.m. and 3 p.m. on weekdays. Weekend closures will take place as needed.
The inspection requires closing the right lane and shoulder of the bridge. Only one direction of travel will be restricted at a time, PennDOT said.

Heavy equipment has been moved to the site of the former Columbia Drive-in. Here's what's supposed to be going in there:
"A planned development that will include 18,000 square feet of retail space, a 3,000 square foot restaurant, a 3,500 square foot bank, 163 mid-rise apartments, and 9 low-rise townhomes, according to West Hempfield Township Planning Commission meeting minutes of May 16, 2019.
