Harrisburg, PA – The Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT) invites the public to an online plan display regarding the Route 2018 (Lucky Road) bridge replacement project. The bridge spans Otter Creek in Chanceford Township, York County, PA.
The purpose of this project is to replace the existing bridge that was closed to traffic in 2018 and improve safety.
The proposed project consists of the replacement of an existing single-span, single-lane steel I-beam structure originally constructed in 1907 and reconstructed in 2005. The proposed structure is a single-span, two-lane concrete spread box beam bridge founded on conventional spread footings.
The proposed structure will carry two travel lanes (10-foot left, 12-foot right) with 2-foot minimum shoulders. The proposed project will closely match the existing roadway horizontal alignment, while raising the vertical alignment to allow for a deeper superstructure.
The project is currently in design, and it is anticipated to start construction during the 2026 construction season.
A digital version of the information will be available to view online from November 7, 2024, to December 7, 2024.
Information, including roadway and bridge 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 York County box then the tile marked Lucky Road Over Otter Creek.
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. Pursuant to Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act, the proposed bridge replacement project will have “No Adverse Effect” as the Farmers’ Canning Company Store property has been determined not eligible for listing on the National Register of Historic Places.
