    Pedestrian Underpass on Cameron Street at Farm Show Complex is Open

    July 08, 2025

    Left turn from WB Cameron Street into Farm Show Complex also open

    Harrisburg, PA – The Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT) announced today that the pedestrian underpass on Cameron Street at the Farm Show Complex and Expo Center is open. The underpass was closed in February due to concrete deterioration.

    In addition to the pedestrian underpass, the left turn lane from westbound Cameron Street into the Farm Show Complex at Farm Show Drive is also open. This turn lane was closed in February because it was located directly above an area of deteriorated concrete inside the tunnel.

    Repairs to the underpass were included in the contract for the pavement preservation project currently underway on Cameron Street.

    This project consists of concrete patching, diamond grinding, milling, asphalt overlay, traffic signal and intersection improvements, minor drainage repairs and other miscellaneous construction on Cameron Street from Paxton Street to Elmerton Avenue/Wildwood Park Drive, and on Arsenal Boulevard from Maclay Street to 15th Street.

    This project is anticipated to be completed by September 1, 2026.

    JD Eckman, Inc., of Atglen, PA, is the contractor on this $8,275,459 project.
