Carlisle Connectivity Project to Begin in Carlisle Borough, Cumberland County

Work includes streetscape, roundabout and intersection improvements

Harrisburg, PA – The Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT) announced today that work on the Carlisle Connectivity Project, a streetscape project that includes the construction of a roundabout in Carlisle Borough, Cumberland County, is scheduled to begin next week.

This project includes the streetscape improvements on Route 11 (Hanover Street) from North Street to McBride Avenue, Route 34 (Carlisle Springs Road) from Route 11 to Hamilton Street, Fairground Avenue from Penn Street to the Norfolk Southern railroad tracks, drainage upgrades, the construction of a roundabout at the 5-legged intersection of Route 11 (Hanover Street), Fairground Avenue and Penn Street, and improvements to the Route 11/Route 34 intersection, including a realignment of the intersection and the installation of a traffic signal.

Weather permitting, work will begin Monday, May 20. Initial work will consist of water line work that will begin at the southern end of North Hanover Street and progress northward. 

There will be lane restrictions under flagging from 8:30 AM to 3:30 PM. This may cause delays. Some work may be performed during other hours but will be off the roadway and will not impact traffic. 

All work is expected to be completed by December of 2025.

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.

Rogele, Inc., of Harrisburg is the contractor on this $7,464,007 project.
