Resident presents photos of deteriorating Bridge A91 on County Route 517, urges immediate county attention
Summary
A resident told commissioners that Bridge A91 on County Route 517 is crumbling and urged repair, presenting photos and saying the surface structure is unsound; county officials did not announce immediate repairs during the meeting.
Kenneth Collins of Andover presented photos during the public comment period and urged the Board of County Commissioners to address what he described as the deteriorating condition of Bridge A91 on County Route 517.
Collins said the bridge “is falling apart and it’s rusty,” and told commissioners the condition has worsened in the nearly three years since he first raised the issue. He said that although county DPW had reassured him the underlying structure is sound, the surface structure “is not sound, and it needs immediate attention.”
Collins urged that the county prioritize repairs, saying the bridge’s visible deterioration suggested long‑term neglect. Commissioners did not announce a specific timeline or immediate repair action in response during the meeting; the comments were recorded during the public session for the board to consider.
No formal action was recorded on Feb. 26 related to Bridge A91.
