Finding

[27 Pa.B. 1206]

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 make improvements to portions of State Route 2010 Section 08B which is located in Middletown and Northampton townships in Bucks County. The improvements consist of the replacement of the Bridgetown Pike Bridge, the new location replacement of the bridge over Core Creek, and the relocation and realignment of approximately 128 meters (420 linear feet) of Bridgetown Pike east of Newtown Pike.

   The project requires that the acquisition of 0.43 hectare (1.07 acres) of right of way from Core Creek County Park which is a recreational resource. The following mitigation measures will be incorporated into the design for implementation during construction:

   1.  The return of 0.46 hectare (1.13 acres) of right of way to the Core Creek County Park which becomes available when the existing Neshaminy Creek Bridge is removed.

   2.  The headrace will be documented as per the Historic American Engineering Record (HAER) standards. In addition to this, the Pennsylvania Historical and Museum Commission (PHMC) will erect a State historic marker to identify the location of the headrace and its relationship to the mill complex and Bridgetown.

   3.  The Bridgetown Pike/Newtown Pike intersection will remain open to traffic during construction in order to minimize impacts to vehicular traffic.

   4.  Erosion and sedimentation control measures will be employed to minimize adverse effects on the water quality of Core Creek and the Neshaminy Creek.

   No adverse environmental effects are likely to result from the reconstruction of this section of highway.
