> Contributed by on Wednesday, November 16 @ 10:46:04 PST  
> Just before noon, this PennDot truck, while backing up, went up onto the bridge sidewalk, above South Birmingham Ave, punching a large hole through the concrete. Just beneath the concrete is a 16 inch high pressure natural gas main. The wheels of the truck were sitting on top of the pipe. Initially it was reported that the line was ruptured but it was not.Fire crews from Avalon, Bellevue, and Ben Avon stood by while the truck was removed. PennDot crews quickly covered the hole with a steel plate. There were no injuries reported

whoops, nice job boys! 🤣

That could have been the 31st Street Bridge, mustang03gt. It’s pretty bad.
