    PennDOT Announce Resurfacing Improvement Project Along Route 6 in Charleston Township, Tioga County, One of the 79 “Rapid Deployment Projects” Governor Shapiro Announced this Week

    September 25, 2026

    Roadway resurfacing project was advanced and will improve road quality.

    Montoursville, PA – The Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT) announced today that one of the 79 ‘Rapid Deployment Projects’ Governor Josh Shapiro announced this week will start on Route 6 in Charleston Township, Tioga County.  This project will improve the ride quality and extend the service life of approximately 4 miles of road.

    The project is part of the first $250 million in funding secured by the Governor in the 2026-27 budget to quickly repair state-owned roads. Over the next 18 months, the Shapiro Administration will drive out a total of $775 million from the Motor License Fund for road work in every county. Before the budget agreement, Route 6 would have been patched instead of resurfaced.

    Beginning Wednesday, September 30, the contractor, Glenn O. Hawbaker, Inc., will begin milling and resurfacing Route 6 between Cherry Flats Road (Route 2018) and just past Memorial Garden Road. Drivers can expect single lane conditions under flagging during daylight hours.

    Drivers should be alert, slow down, expect delays in travel, and drive with caution through the work zone.

    Glenn O. Hawbaker, Inc. is the prime contractor for this $2.3 million roadway resurfacing project. Work includes guide rail repairs, joint repairs, shoulder wash out repairs, asphalt membrane application, milling, and resurfacing. This project is anticipated to be completed in late December 2026.
