An Act designating a bridge, identified as Bridge Key 11231, on that portion of Pennsylvania Route 53 over the Beaver Run River, Houtzdale Borough, Clearfield County, as the Cpl. Melvin Philip "Dutch" Henry Memorial Bridge.
This bill designates a specific bridge on Pennsylvania Route 53 in Houtzdale Borough as the Cpl. Melvin Philip "Dutch" Henry Memorial Bridge to honor a local veteran. The legislation requires the Department of Transportation to install and maintain official signs displaying this new name for traffic traveling in both directions. The act includes background details about Cpl. Henry's life, military service, and heroic status, but its primary function is to formally rename the infrastructure rather than change any operational policies.
