An attendee at the Susquehanna County commissioners meeting announced that the county has been awarded a $2,000,000 multimodal grant to replace the Bridge of Salt Springs.
The presenter said the award resulted from prior work last year with Bobby Joe Turner at the housing authority and that the multimodal grant will fund replacement of the bridge. The announcement was made during the regular meeting and recorded by the commissioners; the transcript does not specify grant conditions, the administering agency, or a construction timeline.
No formal vote was required for the announcement; the grant award was presented as information to the board. The transcript does not include further discussion of next steps, engineering, procurement, or matching funds. County staff or commissioners did not specify an expected timetable for design, permitting, or construction in the recorded remarks.
