PennDOT: Lower Creek Road bridge work continues today
CASTANEA — The Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT) updated drivers on a rehabilitation project impacting two bridges along Route 220 in Castanea Township, Clinton County. The bridges span Lower Creek Road at mile marker 112 of Route 220. This project will improve the ride quality of both structures, extending their service life and improving their overall condition ratings.
Starting today, the contractor will begin sealing the bridge joints on the northbound bridge, which requires them to close the left (passing) lane and left shoulder of the northbound lanes. PennDOT expects this work to be completed by the close of business on Friday, Sept. 6. All work is weather-dependent.
The self-regulated stop signs stationed on Lower Creek Road when the project started on April 29 remain in place.
Rylind Construction of Muncy, Pa., is the contractor on this $771,000 project. PennDOT anticipates completion by the end of September.
