The bridge on White Chapel Road over Dutch Fork Creek east of Lake Drive was closed by the Licking County Engineer on April 2, 2019 due to a hole that appeared in the roadway behind the east abutment. The hole was a result of severe erosion of the creek embankment below and behind the abutment. Additionally, the erosion is deep enough (25 feet or more) to have removed supporting material around the bearing piles of the abutment, which compromises the stability of the entire structure.
