Work continues on SB Route 222 bridge. Expect lane closures and traffic delays on SB Route 222 until repairs are complete.
Harrisburg, PA – The Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT) announced today that repairs have been completed on the northbound Route 222 bridge spanning Church Street near the Route 772 (Brownstown/Rothsville) Exit in West Earl Township, Lancaster County. Traffic restrictions on northbound Route 222 have been lifted.
Lane restrictions remain in place on the southbound Route 222 bridge over Church Street while repairs continue at that location. Crews will work until the repairs are completed on southbound Route 222.
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 closures on Route 222 are necessary to finish the remaining items of work.
New Enterprise Stone and Lime Company, Inc., of New Enterprise, PA, is the contractor on this $8,486,591 project.
