Freeburg Road bridge in Kreamer now open


KREAMER - The bridge along Freeburg Road is now open.

Nearly nine months after it collapsed, Middlecreek Township Supervisors Richard Constant, Donald Athey along with Knorr’s contracting supervisor Willie Confare, opened the bridge for traffic at approximately 10:30 a.m. Saturday.

Because of unforeseen circumstances, the bridge took longer to replace than expected, the supervisors said.

The highly traveled bridge was a major artery to Freeburg and was a short escape for employees at Wood-Mode, Bingamans and Kreamer Feed, as well as residents who lived on the south side of Kreamer.
