Traffic to be detoured; work is part of two-bridge project
Harrisburg, PA – The Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT) announced today that a bridge rehabilitation project is scheduled to begin on Colonial Road (Route 4015) in York County. The bridge spans Davidsburg Run between Harmony Grove Road and Davidsburg Road in Dover Township.
Weather permitting, the bridge will be closed Thursday, July 20. A detour of approximately 100 days will be in place using Davidsburg Road, Canal Road (Route 4002), Route 74, and Harmony Grove Road.
This work is part of a two-bridge rehabilitation project that also includes work on Cly Road (Route 1013) over Conewago Creek between Grandview Drive and Bowers Bridge Road in Conewago and Newberry townships. A 140-day detour went into effect on the Cly Road project in early June.
Work on each bridge consists of removing the existing superstructures and replacing them with prestressed concrete spread box beams with a composite reinforced concrete deck and barrier supported on existing concrete substructures.
The tops of existing substructures will be modified to provide new reinforced concrete bearing seats. Work also includes minor approach roadway reconstruction, scour protection, guide rail, and other miscellaneous construction.
JVI Group, Inc., of York Springs, PA is the prime contractor on this $2,927,863 project. Work is expected to be completed by April 3, 2024.
