    Bridge Repairs on Saturday, June 27, Will Restrict SB Route 222 Lanes over Cocalico Creek in Lancaster County

    June 23, 2026

    Expect a southbound lane restriction and traffic delays during work hours.

    Harrisburg, PA – The Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT) announced today that bridge repair work is planned on Saturday, June 27, on the southbound Route 222 bridge over Cocalico Creek at the Warwick-West Earl township line in Lancaster County.

    Weather permitting, the contractor will repair bridge dams in the southbound lanes of Route 222 from 2:00 AM until 7:00 PM Saturday, June 27. There will be a lane restriction during work hours. Expect travel delays.

    This work is part of a 3.3-mile pavement preservation project on Route 222 in Manheim, Warwick, and West Earl townships, Lancaster County. This project consists of bituminous resurfacing, full-width milling, base repair, concrete patching, guide rail updates, line painting, and sign updates on northbound and southbound Route 222 from the Bushong Road overhead bridge to the Pool Road overhead bridge.

    Most of the roadwork for this project has been completed. However, lane and ramp closures on Route 222 may be necessary to finish the remaining items of work near the Route 772 (Brownstown/Rothsville) interchange.

    New Enterprise Stone and Lime Company, Inc., of New Enterprise, PA, is the contractor on this $8,486,591 project.

    .Travelers are reminded to be alert for these operations, to obey work zone signs, and to use caution when driving through work zones for their safety, as well as for the safety of the road crews.
