President Road Bridge Replacement Project
Project Overview
This is a project to replace the bridge that carries President Road (Route 2023) over Porcupine Creek in President Township, Venango County.
The bridge is located on President Road approximately one mile south of the intersection with Route 62 and four miles north of the intersection with Route 157.
The project consists of the replacement of an existing steel bridge with concrete structure. Minor paving work will be done near the bridge.
Work is anticipated to take place during the 2025 construction season.
The existing single span steel bridge was built in 1958. It is classified as poor condition and is posted with a weight limit of one truck at a time. Approximately 75 vehicles a day use the bridge, on average.
This project is funded at least in part by the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law (BIL).
Traffic Impacts
A detour will be required during construction and is expected to be in place for approximately six months. The proposed 20.7-mile detour route will be posted using Route 62 and Route 157.
