Episode Details

Wilmington’s South Walnut Street bridge is now down to one lane in each direction after inspections revealed serious deterioration in its support columns—dating back to 1938—forcing a 29-ton to 20-ton weight limit. Harsh winter weather accelerated the damage, prompting temporary shoring towers to stabilize the structure. Repairs will take months, so drivers should plan ahead and consider I-95 as an alternate route. This isn’t just cosmetic—it’s foundational, and while the bridge was already slated for replacement, safety demands a pause.
