Dunmore, PA – PennDOT has officially opened the newly constructed Green Ridge Street Bridge on Route 6011 in Scranton, Lackawanna County. The project began in early 2024 with the installation of a temporary bridge, which allowed traffic to continue crossing over the Lackawanna River while the new bridge was built.
Work will continue through 2026 as the temporary bridge is removed and new curbs, sidewalks, drainage systems, and traffic signals are installed on the north side of the road.
The estimated completion date of the project is the fall of 2026.
Motorists can check conditions on major roadways by visiting www.511PA.com. 511PA, which is free and available 24 hours a day, provides traffic delay warnings, weather forecasts, traffic speed information and access to more than 1,200 traffic cameras. 511PA is also available through a smartphone application for iPhone and Android devices, by calling 5-1-1, or by following regional X alerts.
