Harrisburg, PA – The Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT) announced today that an interim repair project on the Route 22 Clarks Ferry Bridge in Reed Township, Dauphin County, is scheduled to resume next week.
Weather permitting, work will begin Monday, July 29. There will be short-term lane restrictions on the bridge, as needed. No lane closures are permitted on eastbound Route 22 from 6:00 AM to 9:00 AM and on westbound Route 22 from 3:00 PM to 6:00 PM. At least one lane of traffic will be open in each direction when the work zone is active. No traffic restrictions will be in place during major holidays and Penn State home football games.
This project consists of replacing existing bridge deck joints with a new bridge expansion joint system, strengthening a pier cap and other miscellaneous construction from just north of the Route 147 interchange to just south of the ramp to Route 849.
All work is expected to be completed by December of 2024.
JVI, Inc., of York Springs is the contractor on this $1,927,570 project.
