HARRISBURG – PennDOT announced that a stoppage is planned for tomorrow at the Route 741 Millersville Road bridge rehabilitation project in Lancaster County. The bridge spans the Conestoga River between Rice Road in Lancaster Township and the entrance to Circle M Campground in Pequea Township. Weather permitting on April 1, the contractor will perform bridge jacking, which will require a full stoppage on the bridge for up to 15 minutes. The stoppage will occur sometime between 8:30 a.m. and 3:30 p.m. This will be one of three bridge jacking operations planned for the bridge. The project consists of a bridge rehabilitation, including concrete repairs to the substructure and superstructure, expansion dam replacements, a latex modified concrete resurfacing of the deck, bridge barrier coating, guide rail upgrades, and other miscellaneous work. There will be temporary lane restrictions under flagging during daylight hours. A detour of up to 56 days will be implemented later this year for deck work. All work for the project is expected to be completed by September 19.
