Montoursville, PA – Motorists are advised that work will begin next week on the installation of a Truck Rollover Warning System at the Route 15 / Interstate 180 / Route 220 interchange in the City of Williamsport, Lycoming County.
Starting on Monday, May 12, 2025, the contractor, Bruce and Merrilees, will begin mobilizing equipment to start the installation of the Truck Rollover Warning System. Work will be performed between Foy Avenue / High Street interchange (Exit 137) and Route 15 / Interstate 180 / Route 220 interchange. Motorists can expect alternating lane restrictions where work is being performed. Work will be performed Sundays through Thursdays between the hours of 7:00 PM and 5:00 AM.
Motorists should be alert, slow down, watch for lane changes, and drive with caution through the work zone.
Bruce-Merrilees Electric Company is the prime contractor for this $879,000 Truck Rollover Warning System. The project includes the installation of a Dynamic Curve Warning System designed to alert tractor trailer trucks approaching the Route 15 southbound curve when they are traveling over 45 MPH. Work on this project includes installation of two upstream facing radar detectors 2,000 feet in advance of the curve to monitor each lane of approaching vehicles. The system will trigger two downstream message boards to activate and provide a message and graphic to warn a speeding truck driver to slow down for the approaching curve ahead. The message board will be blacked out when not activated. Work on this project is anticipated to be completed in the fall 2025, weather permitting.
