PennDOT Butler County Maintenance is Looking for Fill Locations as Shoulder Grading and Ditch Cleaning Operations Begin

Indiana, PA – The Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT) District 10 is announcing the Butler County Maintenance Office is looking for locations to receive fill from upcoming shoulder grading and ditch cleaning operations.

PennDOT crews will be performing maintenance operations along 280 miles of state-maintained roadways in Butler County. Shoulder grading will be conducted in the northeast quadrant of Butler County as part of the cycle sectional maintenance four-year plan.

The shoulder grading operations remove excess soil and debris from unpaved shoulder areas to improve drainage and allow water to leave the roadway. It will begin late April.  Ditch cleaning operations will occur along various routes county wide and occur year-round as weather permits.

The maintenance crews are seeking fill dump sites. Property owners who are interested in receiving the fill should contact the Butler County PennDOT Office at (724) 284-8800, Monday through Friday from 8:00 am until 4:00 pm for a release form.  Authorization and requests for fill are approved annually and need to be renewed each calendar year.
