Project Overview
County: Lancaster
Municipality: Strasburg Township
State Route: Route 2029
Local Name: Bunker Hill Road over Little Beaver Creek
Project Type: Superstructure Replacement
MPMS Number: 101061
Proposed Construction Start: October 2026
Proposed Construction End: May 2027
Last Update: October 2025
The Bunker Hill Road superstructure replacement project is located along Bunker Hill Road over Little Beaver Creek in Strasburg Township, Lancaster County. The purpose of the project is to replace the existing superstructure and repair the existing substructure.
The existing structure was built in 1938 and is a single span, non-composite, steel I-beam bridge with a reinforced concrete deck supported on stone masonry abutments. The existing bridge skew is approximately 90-degrees and the existing bridge length is approximately 55 feet-0 inches.
The existing superstructure will be replaced with a single span, composite steel I-beam superstructure with a reinforced concrete deck slab and parapets. The substructure work will include repairs to the existing stone masonry abutments. Additional work includes utility relocations, reconstruction of the pavement on the roadway approaches, guiderail upgrades, and rock placement around the bridge substructure for scour protection. The proposed curb-to-curb width of the bridge is 21 feet-7 ½ inches.
This section of Bunker Hill Road carries a daily traffic volume of 984 vehicles per day. Environmental activities completed include a wetlands study, bog turtle survey, environmental due diligence form, and historic eligibility surveys for three properties.
The proposed construction schedule is approximately 6 months with the bridge closed to traffic. The proposed 3.7-mile detour will utilize Weaver Road, May Post Office Road and Shaub Road. Access to all driveways within the project limits will be maintained during construction.
Current construction cost is estimated to be approximately $932,000.
