Harrisburg, PA - The Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT) invites the public to view the online plans display for the Sleepy Hollow Road Stream Relocation Project (SR 1026-007) in Elizabeth Township, Lancaster County. The project aims to improve roadway conditions and reduce recurring flooding caused by the nearby unnamed tributary to Hammer Creek.
Proposed improvements will include localized full‑depth pavement and base repairs, roadway resurfacing, shoulder widening to current design standards, replacement of the existing cross‑pipe drainage facility, and relocation of the adjacent Unnamed Tributary to improve hydraulic performance and reduce roadway flooding and erosion.
The project is currently in design and construction work is expected to take place in the 2028 construction season.
A digital version of the information will be available to view online from May 22, 2026 through June 26, 2026.
Information including roadway plans and an interactive comment form, can be found by visiting the PennDOT District 8 website, www.penndot.gov/District8, clicking on Public Meetings listed under the Resources heading, and choosing the Lancaster County box then the tile marked Sleepy Hollow Road Stream Relocation.
The purpose of the plans display is to introduce the project and receive public input regarding any questions or concerns with the project. It is also an opportunity for the public to review and comment on the project’s potential effect upon Cultural Resources pursuant to the Advisory Council on Historic Preservation’s 36 CFS Part 800 regulations implementing Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act.
The project documents can be made available in alternative languages or formats if requested.
