Hosack Road Bridges Rehabilitation Project
Project Overview
The Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT) invites the public to view the online plans display for a project to repair the bridges that carry Hosack Road over Yellow Creek Branch in Jackson Township, Mercer County.
The project includes the partially reconstruction of the existing abutments and a new bridge deck and superstructure.
The bridges are located on Hosack Road between the intersection with the Fox Mine Road and the intersection with Route 62. The first bridge is approximately 1,000 feet south of Fox Mine Road and used by approximately 375 vehicles a day, on average. The second is approximately 3,566 feet south of Fox Mine Road and is used by approximately 250 vehicles a day, on average.
Mercer County owns the bridges, which were built in 1965 and are rated in poor condition.
Work is expected to start during the 2024 construction season and is expected to be completed in 2025.
Traffic Impacts
A detour will be required during construction and is expected to be in place for approximately 12 months. The proposed 4.9-mile detour route will be posted using Rout 62, Clark Road, and Fox Mine Road.
