    STREETS DEPARTMENT REOPENS 15TH STREET BRIDGE
    WEDNESDAY, MAY 15
    Vehicle Weight Restriction Established

    PHILADELPHIA - The 15th Street Bridge between Callowhill and Spring Garden Streets opened to vehicular traffic today, with a "three-ton, no trucks or bus weight restrictions," Streets Commissioner David J. Perri announced today. All trucks, buses and other heavy vehicles are required to detour to alternate travel routes for the entire length of the bridge.

    The bridge was closed January 2013 due to severe deterioration to a section of the bridge. The Streets Department's Bridge Maintenance Unit re-enforced this section to strengthen the bridge.

    The Streets Department thanks citizens for their patience and cooperation during this project.
