Crum Creek Viaduct, Delaware County, Pennsylvania

Crum Creek Viaduct, Delaware County, Pennsylvania

The project consists of the proposed replacement of the Crum Creek Viaduct over Crum Creek in Swarthmore Borough and Nether Providence Township, Delaware County.  The existing viaduct is approximately 900 feet long, with seventeen spans, approximately 100 feet high, and was constructed in ca. 1897.

It is currently used by SEPTA’s Media/Elwyn Line commuter railroad line.  Because of the length and height of the viaduct and the fact that it carries an active rail line, the proposed project will involve extensive preparation time and will necessitate several access points and staging areas for large materials and equipment.
