Martin’s Mill Bridge to get grant, a lift
Echo Pilot (Pennsylvania) - by Pat Fridgen
A century and a half-year-old bridge in Antrim Township will be getting a real boost.
Antrim administrator Brad Graham, in response to a citizen's query at the Tuesday, Dec. 13 regular meeting of the board of supervisors, talked about a $700,000 federal grant the township just received for Martin's Mill Bridge.
Awarded by the Federal Highway Administration, the money will not be available for several years, and will be distributed by PennDOT.
Graham said it would be used to extend the life of the 162-year-old covered bridge. Antrim also received $245,000 in matching earmarked funds from Rep. Bill Shuster's office in 2008, but Graham said it was yet unclear how much of the new money would have to be matched.
