Indiana, PA – The Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT) is announcing a bridge replacement of the Pilgrimham Bridge on Route 208 in Salem Township, Clarion County.
July 22 through 31, the Pilgrimham Bridge will be closed for the replacement of the existing structure that carries Route 208 over Turkey Run.
To detour from the western side of the bridge motorists will follow Route 208 west to I-80 eastbound to Route 338 north to Route 208 west. Those travelling from the eastern side of the closure will reverse the westbound detour route. The Amish and bike detour from western side of the bridge will travel Nickelville Road (T-900) to Baker Road (T-321) to Ron McHenry Road (T-861). Those travelling from the eastern side of the closure will reverse the westbound detour route.
August 1 through September, Route 208 at the bridge will operate under short-term lane closures controlled with flaggers as crews complete earthwork, seeding, and miscellaneous finish work.
Contractor, S.E.T., Inc. of Lowellville, OH will be completing this $1.26 million project with an anticipated completion in September.
