BRIDGES: The Lenape Bridge is full of potholes

Have you driven over the Lenape Bridge recently? There are potholes on top of potholes and there's very little room to maneuver around them. I cannot imagine what it's going to be like when the Route 926 bridge over the Brandywine at Pocopson is closed for replacement for 18 months, forcing many more drivers to take Route 52 and use the Lenape Bridge instead. As it is, when the Pocopson bridge was flooded last week, a commuter friend of mine was stuck in a traffic jam on Route 52 that stretched all the way back to Denton Hollow Road.
The last I heard, the Pocopson bridge project is supposed to start the middle of this year. The 77-year-old bridge, which according to PennDOT carries nearly 14,500 cars  a day, is going to be torn down and replaced in an $8 million project.
