Dunmore, PA – The Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT) invites the public to virtual and public plans displays regarding the Route 4004 Pipe Project over Little Shickshinny Creek. The public plans display will be held at the Salem Township Municipal Building located (38 Bomboy Ln, Berwick, PA 18603) in Luzerne County on October 7, 2025 at 6:00 PM.
The purpose of the project is to provide a sustainable crossing over the Little Shickshinny Creek that provides a two-lane bridge, addresses the structural deficiencies, and provides continued access to residents, businesses, and emergency services.
The project consists of replacing the existing quadruple reinforced concrete pipe structure with a precast reinforced concrete box culvert. Additional proposed work includes approach pavement replacement, rock scour protection, and guide rail updates. The new culvert will provide two 10-foot lanes with 2-foot shoulders for a new roadway width of 24 feet.
The virtual plans display are available online September 23,2025 through November 7, 2025. Online information, including proposed detour route, detailed project information, and comment form, can be found by visiting the following PennDOT District 4-0 website: Route 4004 Pipe Replacement Project over Little Shickshinny Creek | Department of Transportation | Commonwealth of Pennsylvania.
