Stoppage of up to 15 minutes planned for Tuesday, April 22nd.
The Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT) announced today that a second brief stoppage is planned for next Tuesday at the Route 741 (Millersville Road) bridge rehabilitation project in Lancaster County. The bridge spans the Conestoga River between Rice Road in Lancaster Township and the entrance to Circle M Campground in Pequea Township.
Weather permitting, on Tuesday, April 22, the contractor will perform bridge jacking, which will require a full stoppage on the bridge for up to 15 minutes. This stoppage will occur sometime between the hours of 8:30 AM and 3:30 PM. This may cause delays. The structure was jacked up several weeks ago so repairs could be made underneath it.
This will be the second of three bridge jacking operations planned for this bridge. Releases will be issued prior to subsequent jacking operations.
Please see our previous post for more information on this project.
