Now from our delaware bureau, a mistake on a bridge in Newcastle County will cost the states taxpayers about a half million dollars. Deldot is getting ready to repair a bridge in newport. When they built it five years ago, the surveyor made a mistake calculating the height required by csx for the bridge to comfortably accommodate doubledup train containers. Now deldot has to jack up the bridge about six inches, and taxpayers will get pinched. You okay paying for this . No. I dont mind paying for improvements, but i dont like doing the same work twice because somebody was inefficient. It pains me as much as anybody else to have to spend money to raise a bridge that was just built five years ago. Deldot has since changed its policies. Every project surveyed now has three different looks to make sure that they get it right before construction begins.

The report found several intruders had guns or knives, but it says the tsa has been more focused on stopping passengers from bringing weapons on planes.

We caught up with an eighth grader from delaware county. She says a lot of work goes into being a good speller. You should be a word nerd, and you should, like, be prepared to study and know the words and their definitions and things. Most of all, you should like words.
