LIBERTY TOWNSHIP – The Pennsylvania Department of Transportation has posted a weight restriction on a bridge in Centre County.
The bridge spans Marsh Creek on Route 1002 (Marsh Creek Road), about one mile northeast of Romola in Liberty Township.
This 98-foot bridge dates from 1953 and carries an average of 437 vehicles each day.
The bridge will be posted for a 5-ton weight limit as early as Sept. 22. The weight restriction will remain in place until temporary repairs can be made this fall to improve the posting. PennDOT is planning a full replacement of the bridge in 2023.
