AVONDALE: Another bridge opening delay

The reopening of the State Street bridge in Avondale has been pushed back from May 25 to June 20. According to a report posted on the London Grove Township website about a May 23 progress meeting, PECO Energy took longer than expected to complete its portion of the project. The remaining work includes drainage, paving, and installation of curbs, sidewalks, and guiderails. According to the London Grove report, "The County representatives were clear with the contractor that there will be no more extensions."
The strategically located bridge, owned by Chester County, has been closed for reconstruction since last summer. The project has created a major traffic headache that has plagued motorists not only in Avondale but also in London Grove, West Grove and Penn Townships.
