    Minor Delays Continue through June 5 on Route on Route 655 (Big Valley Pike) in Huntingdon County for Bridge Replacement Project

    May 22, 2026

    The Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT) is informing drivers that minor delays from a lane restriction and temporary signal-light on Route 655 (Big Valley Pike) north of Mill Creek in Huntingdon County continue Tuesday, May 26 through Friday, June 5, 2026, for an ongoing bridge replacement project.

    Quaker Sales Corporation of Johnstown is the lead contractor for the $1,430,538 bridge rehabilitation project, which includes replacing the 118-year-old I-beam structure over the Flush Run-Mill Creek tributary near the intersection with Fireman’s Park Lane with a precast concrete box culvert. The project is scheduled for completion in October 2026.

    Drivers can expect minor delays – three (3) to five (5) minutes – from a single-lane restriction under the direction of a temporary signal-light. Traffic will run on a temporary road built around the bridge. A temporary pedestrian crosswalk will also be used.
