If you’ve been driving into Lehigh Parkway via Park Drive over the past few months you may have noticed that the cones have moved, pushing cars further and further left, away from the wall. Prior to the start of this morning’s LVRR Kids’ Series races the inevitable finally occurred.
The wall broke.
Police quickly arrived at the scene, rerouting traffic while maintaining safety.
Huge props to the quick response of the Allentown Police Department.
A crew is currently on site working on the wall at the time of this article publishing.
Here is an article which was posted two days ago on wfmz.com about the wall and its planned repairs. The wall dates back to the Great Depression and was constructed as part of the Works Progress Administration.
