Finding [27 Pa.B. 2587] Bucks County Under the provisions of section 2002(b) of The Administrative Code of 1929 (71 P. S. § 512(b)), the Secretary of Transportation makes the following written finding:
The Department of Transportation plans to replace County Bridge 313 on Letchworth Avenue, in the Borough of Yardley, Bucks County. The project consists of constructing a new bridge to replace County Bridge 313.
The proposed project will have an adverse effect on County Bridge 313, which has been determined eligible for the National Register of Historic Places. There is no feasible and prudent alternative to the removal of the historic bridge. Minimization of impact will be addressed through the recordation of the historic structure, using standards set by the Historic American Engineering Record, and the reuse of the existing trusses as non-load bearing members in the new bridge.
No adverse environmental effect is likely to result from the construction of this bridge.
