• Montgomery County food safety inspections found rodent droppings on floor, shelving and storage room (pottsmerc.com subscription) — Montgomery County’s latest food safety inspections include Goodness Bowls on East Main Street in Collegeville, where inspectors flagged improperly labeled unpasteurized juice and debris buildup in chest freezers. Most other cited issues countywide involved temperature control, sanitation, and pest concerns, offering a useful snapshot of how local restaurants are performing on health standards.
   

• Still Standing: America's Oldest Bridges in Service (roadsbridges.com) — One of America’s oldest still‑serving bridges is right here in Collegeville: the Perkiomen Bridge, a stone arch span over Perkiomen Creek first built in 1799. It’s slated for a major rehabilitation starting April 2027 and finishing July 2028, work that should preserve this heavily used historic crossing for future generations of local drivers and pedestrians.
