Contractor to demolish median bridge pier, begin constructing new pier
Harrisburg, PA – The Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT) announced today that nighttime lane restrictions will continue next week on Route 30 at the Centerville Road Interchange Improvement Project in East Hempfield Township, Lancaster County.
Weather permitting, the left lane of Route 30 will be closed in both directions from 8:00 PM to 6:00 AM the nights of Sunday January 28, through Thursday, February 1.
The restrictions will be in place so the contractor can demolish the existing median pier of the old bridge that carried Centerville Road over Route 30 and begin constructing a new pier at the same location.
This work was previous expected to be performed last week and this week. However, last week’s work was cancelled due to inclement weather, so it was rescheduled for this week and next week.
Motorists should be alert, drive with caution and watch for slow-moving traffic.
This work is part of the Centerville Road Interchange Improvement project, which consists of structure replacement, Superpave overlay, base replacement, roadway widening, milling, guiderail improvements, drainage improvements, pavement markings, ADA improvements, traffic signal improvements, and other miscellaneous construction.
The project includes work on Centerville Road from Cornerstone Drive to Marietta Avenue (Route 23), and Marietta Avenue from Centerville Road to Stony Battery Road. The project is primarily located in East Hempfield Township, though the section from Cornerstone Drive to Columbia Avenue is in Manor Township.
JD Eckman, Inc., of Atglen, PA is the prime contractor on this $36.3 million project. Work is expected to be completed by July 22, 2025.
