Harrisburg, PA – The Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT) announced today that the Route 741 (Millersville Road) bridge in Lancaster County is open to traffic.
The bridge, which spans the Conestoga River between Rice Road in Lancaster Township and the entrance to Circle M Campground in Pequea Township, was closed in June for deck repairs.
A detour associate with the closure has been lifted.
This work is part of a bridge rehabilitation project that includes concrete repairs to the substructure and superstructure, expansion dam replacements, a latex modified concrete resurfacing of the deck, bridge barrier coating, guiderail upgrades, and other miscellaneous work.
JD Eckman, Inc., of Atglen, PA, is the contractor on this $3,387,725 project.
All work is expected to be completed by September 19, 2025.
