This is a beautiful bridge, and serves thriving communities on both sides of the River. People's safety is being compromised, and their livelihood threatened, by their own State DOT.

This is such a beautiful area, a haven for tourists, and it will be severely diminished in attractiveness with the bridge shut and the need to go all the way around. The local economy is dependent on this bridge and its essential to have it open.

This is a shame that the authorities are not able to handle this situation in a timely manner that would satisfy the tax paying citizens of both states.
Shame on you DOT of both states.

The Delaware River separates two communities, but the bridge unites them and all who enjoy this special area.

cut the red tape and use the funding for the Pond Eddy bridge which services a few and repair the Skinners Falls Bridge which serves the community.

The Skinners Falls Bridge is on the list of historic sites. However, PennDoT has not filed the necessary paperwork required by this designation. Also, the inconveniences this bridge closure have already caused will only increase through the spring, summer and autumn, as vacationers, outdoorspeople and our weekend and summer residents arrive. The bypass roads were not made for this increase in traffic, or for large trucks driving in both directions. Were there to be an emergency, emergency crews and/or evacuators would need to travel miles out of their way. Closing this bridge will cause unnecessary hardship to the economy of our community.

The bridge needs to be repaired. The River Road on PA side is definitely not a good alternate route. It is rural, very windy and hardly wide enough to fit 1 vehicle in spots, let's not try 2!

I use this bridge a lot in the summertime to get back-and-forth to work, it cuts off about 20 minutes of travel time for me. This is a huge inconvenience for me as well as many others. I pray and rally for repair and reopen!

Closure of the Milanville Bridge will adversely affect residents, businesses and visitors as well as emergency services. River Road is not a safe North-South alternative to Rte. 97. Necessary repairs should be expedited. Set tonnage restrictions.

Please fix and repair as this causes me additional travel just to get to my property. As a tax payer I think closing this bridge is a great mistake as it will cause undo hardship on the businesses in the area. Why not keep it open to cars, bikes, predestrians only NO trucks.
Save the bridgeeee !
