October 15, 2018 By Tim McNellie

A view of the Bridgeville Borough building on Station Street

For nearly two years, the official Bridgeville Borough newsletter devoted part of its front page—the most valuable space in any printed publication—to warning residents that this website, Bridgeville.org, is not an official, borough-authorized source of local news. For almost the same length of time, the Bridgeville Planning Commission had been working with a consultant to… [Read More]

Councilman Colosimo Hopes Security Cams Deter Park Vandals

Bridgeville Police Chief Chad King reminded residents earlier this month that “stop” signs that extend from school buses actually do means “stop,” and that it’s illegal to try to drive around the bus. “Unfortunately, we’ve had to write a few tickets for cars passing the school buses whenever they’ve been loading up students,” King told… [Read More]
