Project Overview
County: Wyoming County
Municipality: Nicholson Township
Route: 1015
Local Name: Field Brook Road
Project Type: Bridge Replacement
Start Month: May 2026
End Month: September 2026
Last Updated: January 2024
Designer: RK&K, LLP
SR 1015 (Field Brook Road) crosses over Field Brook in Wyoming County. The existing structure is a 1-span Steel I-Beam Stringer Bridge built in 1941 with a span length of 32'. The existing bridge is currently weight restricted and posted for a limit of 4 tons. This bridge replacement will alleviate any current weight restrictions and provide a structure that meets current design standards. The proposed bridge is a two-lane bridge with 2-10' lanes and 2-3' shoulders. This project will also include approximately 300' of full depth paving on the roadway approaches and relocation of the existing 6" Sunoco gas transmission line.
Additional Project Information
The bridge is anticipated to be closed during the 2026 construction season for approximately 3 months. During construction, traffic will be detoured using state roads. The 14.5-mile detour will include SR 92, SR 1011 (W Nicholson Rd), SR 2001, and SR 2003. Access to driveways and businesses within and near the work area will remain open during construction.
