Summary

Supervisors directed staff to close County Line Road Bridge once detour plans and signage are in place; the bridge has structural deficiencies and the township is exploring DCED grant funds to cover its 20% local match for a previous 80% DVRPC replacement grant.

Manager Andrew Duncan briefed the board on the County Line Road Bridge, noting the structure has "structural deficiencies" and that detour plans are being prepared. The township previously received an 80% replacement grant (2015) with a 20% local match; Duncan said a DCED grant is available that could cover the township’s 20% share. Allison Lee said the bridge appears to be a prefabricated installation with an estimated 90-day build.

The board voted to close the County Line Road Bridge as soon as detour plans and signage have been received, instructing staff to move forward with closure preparations and application for available grant match funding.
