The pavement adjacent
to the Route 23 rails on Germantown Avenue, at the intersection with
Broad Street, was deteriorating. Rather than repair it, blacktop was
simply poured over the rails.
This has been done at
several locations on Route 23, including 10th Street between Susquehanna
Avenue and Cumberland Street.
