The Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT) is informing drivers that short delays from lane restrictions continue on Route 994 (Old Plank Road) in Todd Township, Huntingdon County, for a bridge project over the unnamed tributary of Great Trough Creek.
Motorists can expect single-lane restrictions, standard daylight flagging operations and short delays of three (3) to five (5) minutes from Monday, April 27, through Friday, May 8, 2026, on Route 994 (Old Plank Road) near the T-361 (Newburg School Road) intersection.
As always, PennDOT stresses extra caution in all work zones. Motorists should drive slowly, eliminate all distractions, and stay alert for direction from advanced signage.
Cottle's Asphalt Maintenance, Inc., of Everett, PA, is the lead contractor for the $788,143.10 project, which includes the complete replacement of an existing I-beam bridge with a single span reinforced concrete spread box beam bridge. A temporary roadway using part of Tatman Run Drive will be built to maintain Route 994 traffic during construction, but a temporary closure of Tatman Run Drive will occur to build the temporary roadway.
Motorists can check conditions on major roadways by visiting www.511PA.com. 511PA, which is free and available 24 hours a day, provides traffic delay warnings, weather forecasts, traffic speed information and access to more than 1,000 traffic cameras. 511PA is also available through a smartphone application for iPhone and Android devices, by calling 5-1-1, or by following regional X alerts.
