PLYMOUTH MEETING, Pa. (CBS) - A busy road in Plymouth Meeting, Montgomery County is closed until further notice because of a sinkhole.
Plymouth Road between the Blue Route and Butler Pike is detoured indefinitely while PennDOT assesses how badly a sinkhole has damaged the bridge over Plymouth Creek.
