In 2015, CSX made a commitment to do a facelift on the 25th Street bridge in South Philadelphia. Seven years later, residents are still reporting erosion from the viaduct.
Just last week, Anthony Trave documented the crumbling concrete that landed inches from several parked cars.
Now, the city has filed a complaint with the Pennsylvania Public Utility Commission to enforce a 2005 order that ensures the viaduct is structurally sound. "We don't want to wait until someone actually gets hurt until we take this situation seriously. So my belief is that CSX should step up, they made a promise, a commitment. We want them to follow through on that promise or commitment," said Councilmember Kenyatta Johnson.CSX began work on the 25th Street viaduct in 2014 and has completed various phases of the project to ensure the safe operation of rail traffic and the safety of the South Philadelphia community.
Bridges across our network are regularly inspected by certified railroad bridge experts and maintained in accordance with CSX policies, which meet or exceed federal regulations. The 25th Street Viaduct was inspected in 2021 and determined to be safe for railroad operations. Our bridge maintenance program focuses on structural integrity, reliability and safety for railroad operations.
