Changes Coming at Route 51 Eat'n Park Whitehall Borough Councilman Philip Lahr shared the news at Wednesday night's council meeting that big changes are coming at the Route 51 Eat'n Park.

PHOTOS: Troubled Stretch of Route 51 Gets Crosswalks

The Baldwin Borough Council reacts to accidents involving pedestrians.

Responding to public safety concerns at three busy intersections on Clairton Boulevard (Route 51), the Baldwin Borough Council approved an approximately $8,000 contract in May to have those intersections marked with crosswalks. The crosswalks have since been painted by Alpha Space Control Company, of Franklin County, PA, and the Baldwin Council authorized final payment to Alpha Space at a borough meeting on Tuesday night. "Maintaining the crosswalks and pedestrian/traffic signals is the responsibility of the borough," Baldwin Manager John Barrett said on Wednesday. "The crosswalks require periodic maintenance and were due for some attention. Borough Council also wanted to respond positively to the pedestrian accidents that have taken place…

Garbage Truck Load Catches Fire at Whitehall Towers

Cause remains a mystery.

Garbage inside of a dump truck owned by waste management company Republic Services caught fire in a parking lot next to the Whitehall Towers office building along Streets Run Road at around 11:20 a.m. on Monday. The office building sits on the edge of Whitehall and Baldwin boroughs next to Baldwin Emergency Medical Services Station 510 and behind the Route 51 Eat'n Park. Crews from the Whitehall Fire Company and the Whitehall Police Department responded to the scene shortly after the fire was reported and drove away at around 12:03 p.m. Whitehall firefighters doused the dump truck and its garbage load with water, and the three Republic Services employees who were with the truck left the garbage in the parking lot to be cleaned up later. …

Streetlights Removal in Baldwin Should Start This Month

Also, the Baldwin Pool will stay open late on Community Day and other notes from a May 15 borough meeting.

Streetlights Removal Starting Crews from Duquesne Light will descend on Baldwin Borough to remove certain streetlights starting as early as the end of this month, Baldwin Manager John Barrett said a borough council meeting on Tuesday night. Barrett said that the removal process, which is expected to save borough taxpayers an estimated $66,000 annually in energy costs, should take 60-90 days to complete. A joint recommendation by Baldwin Mayor Alexander R. Bennett Jr. and Baldwin police Sgt. Kim Reising was to take away 376 borough lights, but after hearing concerns from residents during two special public meetings (1, 2) on the subject—as well as from emails and phone calls—Bennett and Reising pared their elimination list down by 10 lights…

I have done enough research on LED lights and found that the cost of what your company and these other fly by night companies are saying are not true, that it is something that you have to really push to sell.
