Harrisburg, PA – The Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT) invites the public to an online plans display regarding the Route 1007 (Wilhour Road) Bridge Rehabilitation Project at the Wiconisco Creek crossing in Dauphin County. This project is located between US 209 and North Church Street in Washington Township.
The proposed project will be the replacement of the superstructure (bridge beams, deck, and parapet walls) of the existing bridge, pavement reconstruction on the bridge approaches, and guide rail improvements. Construction will occur during a full closure of the project area with a detour utilizing North Church Street and US 209.
A digital version of the project plans and information will be available to view online through June 2, 2025. The hard copy plans will also be available for review at the Washington Township Municipal Building through June 2, as well.
Information, including bridge plans and an interactive comment form, can be found by visiting the PennDOT District 8 website, PennDOT District 8, clicking Projects Near You listed on the left side of the page, then the District 8 Projects, and choosing Wilhour Road Bridge Rehabilitation over Wiconisco Creek.
