Weatherly Borough council, at Monday’s meeting, was told the lowest bid to demolish the remaining standing walls of the former Lehigh Valley Railroad shops on Weatherly’s Trainworks site met all conditions and bonds.

Umbriac Trucking of Hazleton, which has done other work in the borough, offered the lowest qualified bid for the removal of the old stone walls on the site at a price of $64,700. The contract with Umbriac was approved unanimously.

The work will begin on April 7, weather permitting.

The walls will be toppled and the stone crushed. That crushed stone will remain on site to be used on the trail project that could start later this year. Construction of the first leg of a trail along the Black Creek, from the Trainworks downstream toward the Lehigh Gorge, will be put out to bid this spring once engineers complete work on the specifications.
