The Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT) invites the public to an online plans display for work on the bridge that carries Bargain Road over Interstate 90 in McKean Township, Erie County.
The bridge is located on Bargain Road (Route 4103) approximately 1/2 mile west of the intersection with Interstate 79.
The project includes the rehabilitation of the structure, milling and asphalt paving, deck repairs, and updates to the barriers, pier joint encasement, and waterproof membrane installation.
Work is expected to occur during the 2024 construction season and will last approximately two months.
A detour will be required during construction. The proposed 5.8-mile detour route will be posted using Route 99 (Edinboro Road) and Grub Road (Route 4011).
The existing concrete box beam bridge was built in 1959. Approximately 750 vehicles a day use the bridge, on average.
The information on the Bargain Road Bridge Project, including a handout, digital plans, and an online comment form, is available online. The page will remain active until July 20, 2023, and can be accessed by visiting the PennDOT District 1 website, www.penndot.pa.gov/District1.
Those unable to access the information online may give feedback by contacting PennDOT Project Manager Matthew Antrilli at mantrilli@pa.gov or 814-678-7169.
The purpose of the virtual public online plans display is to introduce the project and receive public input regarding any questions or concerns with the project. It is also an opportunity for the public to review and comment on the project's potential effect upon Cultural Resources pursuant to the Advisory Council on Historic Preservation's 36 CFR Part 800 regulations implementing Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act.
The project documents will be made available in alternative languages or formats if requested. If you need translation/interpretation services or have special needs or have special concerns that require individual attention, contact Matt Antrilli PennDOT Project Manager at mantrilli@pa.gov, or 814-678-7169.
