Historic bridge to be restored, relocated, given new life
As Newswatch 16 s Marshall Keely shows us, the bridge in Schuylkill County will have a new purpose and a new look. Author: Marshall Keely (WNEP) Updated: 7:11 PM EDT May 6, 2021
MOUNT CARBON, Pa. An 1894 bow-string arch bridge in Mount Carbon is now at the center of a PennDOT project. The bridge spans the Schuylkill River right across the street from Goodfella s Cafe.
It was first used for automobiles, then pedestrians. Now, the area is blocked off and overgrown. The bridge deck is mostly gone. But PennDOT officials saw it as a great candidate for a project aimed at restoring old bridges and connecting them to trails.
