Project Overview

County: Susquehanna County
Municipality: Liberty Township
State Route: Route 1022
Project Type: Structure Replacement 
Proposed Construction Start: Spring 2027
Proposed Construction End: Fall 2027
Last Updated: 02/24/2025

The purpose of this project is to address the deficiencies of the existing structure and provide continued safe and efficient crossing of the Tributary to Dubois Creek. The Route 1022-552 project consists of replacing the existing single span metal arch culvert with a precast concrete box culvert. The reconstructed Route 1022 roadway (Liberty Park Rd) and structure will consist of two 10’-0” travel lanes with 4’-0” shoulders.

Additional work includes, but is not limited to: approach roadway reconstruction, guide rail upgrades, drainage improvements, grading, signing, and pavement markings. One utility pole relocation is also anticipated as part of the project.

Additional Project Information

Traffic will be maintained through a detour during construction. The proposed 11.3-mile detour will utilize all state routes.

The project is currently in the preliminary design phase. It is anticipated that construction will begin in the spring of 2027 and will be complete by the fall of 2027.

Detour Routes and Information 

The roadway at the bridge site will be closed to all traffic and detoured during construction. The detour is expected to be in place for approximately three months.

Beginning west of the project, the vehicle detour will follow PA-29 north until reaching NY-7 (Montrose Drive). Travelers will turn right from NY-7 onto NY-7A (Conklin Road) and then continue on PA  Route 1033 (New York Ave) until the intersection with Route 1037 (Dubois Street). Travelers will then connect back into Route 1022 (Liberty Park Road) for a total detour length of 11.3 miles.
