Skinners Falls Bridge Removal Pushed to Mid-March Due to River Ice
The Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT) announced Monday that work to remove the Skinners Falls Bridge will begin this week.
The bridge, which connects Pennsylvania and New York, has been deemed a safety hazard due to its failing substructure and superstructure, according to PennDOT. A January 2025 inspection revealed further deterioration, with the New York abutment and upstream truss bearing areas actively moving.
Appearing on Radio Chatskill Tuesday, PennDot District 4 Executive Rich Roman says the removal won’t and can’t actually begin until mid-March because of the icepack on the Delaware River.
