Virtual plans available for bridge replacement project

The Pennsylvania Department of Transportation is inviting the public to view a virtual plans display for the project to replace the bridge and pipe that carries Greeley Street over Little Brokenstraw Creek in Bear Lake Borough, Warren County.

The bridge is located on Greeley Street, about three-fourths of a mile from the intersection with Route 958.

The project will include replacing the existing bridge with a precast box culvert. Work will also include some minimal roadway approach work. Replacement of existing cross pipe just east of structure is also included.

Work is expected to occur during the 2021 construction season.

A detour will be required during construction and is expected to be in place for about one month. The proposed 13.2-mile detour will be posted using Route 957 and Route 958.

The existing bridge was built in 1948 and is classified as poor condition. About 400 vehicles a day use the bridge, on average.

The virtual plans display includes digital picture boards of the proposed project and an online comment form. It can be accessed by visiting the PennDOT District 1 website, penndot.gov/District1, clicking on Public Meetings/Studies listed under the Resources heading, and choosing the Warren County box then the tile marked Greeley Street Bridge Replacement.

The plans display will be held online only. It will be open from now to Jan. 11. Those unable to access the study online may give feedback by contacting PennDOT Project Manager Matt Antrilli at mantrilli@pa.gov or 814-678-7169.

Starting at $3.50/week.
