PHILADELPHIA (WPVI) — PennDOT has begun work to rehabilitate the Frankford Avenue Bridge that carries traffic over the Frankford Creek.
The 123 year old single span bridge was recently listed in poor condition.
The $10M dollar project will include a superstructure that will match the existing bridge, shoulder, and sidewalk widths.
The project will also install a barrier along East Hunting Park Avenue from Frankford Avenue to Torresdale Avenue.
The bridge will be closed for at least one year.
Detours will be set up and it will slow down traffic in the area.
