Route 22/322 Clark's Ferry Improvements Project
Overview
The Pennsylvania Department of Transportation is currently performing preliminary engineering for Route 22/322 Clark’s Ferry Improvement Project, which includes rehabilitation of the Clark’s Ferry Bridge and Safety Improvements along Route 22/322 from the Clark’s Ferry Bridge to the US 11/15 Interchange in Reed Township, Dauphin County.
The purpose of the project is to improve safety along the state highway, improve traffic flow and address deficiencies on the bridge to extend the service life of the structure.
Proposed improvements include replacing the existing center turn lane on Route 22/322 within the project limits with a continuous median barrier. Additional improvements include signing and pavement markings and lighting for a westbound frontage lane that would serve local traffic right turning movements.
Clark’s Ferry Bridge proposed scope of work to include deck rehabilitation and overlay, replacing the existing armored compression seals, repairing prestressed beam ends, spot painting, replacing tooth expansion dam and spouting.
The project is currently in preliminary design phase and physical work is anticipated to take place between the 2026 to 2031 construction season subject to all approvals, environmental clearances, and funding availability.
