Harrisburg, PA – The Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT) announced today that a detour is planned for Milroy Road at the Route 322/Chambers Hill Road Intersection Improvement Project in Swatara Township, Dauphin County.
The detour will be in place to allow the contractor to complete work on Milroy Road and finish the roundabout at the intersection of Milroy and Grayson roads.
Weather permitting, Milroy Road will be closed Monday, March 9, from the Route 322 intersection to the Grayson Road intersection. A detour of up to 180 days will be in place.
To access Milroy Road, westbound Route 322 traffic will continue west to Witmer Drive, turn right and proceed to Grayson Road, turn right and proceed to Milroy Road. To access Hilton Street, eastbound Route 322 traffic should turn right onto Webner Road, left onto Chambers Hill Road then go straight to the signalized intersection with Route 322 and proceed through the intersection to Hilton Street.
Motorists should be alert and drive with caution through the work zone.
This work is part of the reconstruction of the intersection of Route 322 with Grayson Road and Chambers Hill Road in Swatara Township.
The Route 322 signalized intersection with Grayson Road and Chambers Hill Road (Route 3006) is being reconstructed to four approaches with left-turn lanes removed from Route 322.
One through lane will be added in each direction of Route 322. Eastbound Route 322 left turns have been replaced with the new jug handle and signal at Witmer Road. Westbound Route 322 left turns will be replaced with a new roundabout and bypass lanes at the intersection with Milroy Road and Grayson Road.
Construction of three retaining walls will accommodate the widening and geometry, as well as the addition of dynamic message signs, stormwater management basins, drainage, guiderail, barrier, signs and upgraded pavement markings, and other miscellaneous construction.
This project is expected to be completed by August 18, 2027. J.D. Eckman, Inc., of Atglen, PA, is the prime contractor on this $38,561,349 project.
