KILBUCK TOWNSHIP, Pa. -- Wal-Mart said it has a plan to stop the ground from moving on the site of a new store along Route 65 in Kilbuck Township, and the public will hear about the plan next week.
The retailer will hold a public meeting on Tuesday to show people how it plans to prevent future landslides at the site.
The meeting will be held at 6 p.m. in the Avonworth High School auditorium.
In September, tons of dirt and rock from the site fell onto Route 65, closing the highway it for weeks.
