The Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT) announced work to replace a Route 1011 (West Eldred Road) bridge spanning Fowler Brook three miles north of Coryville in Eldred Township in McKean County is set to get underway Thursday, August 14. Replacing this structure will improve its overall condition rating.
The bridge will close on August 14. While it is closed, traffic will follow a detour using Routes 346 and 446 around the work zone. PennDOT anticipates the detour will be in place until mid-September, but all schedules are weather-dependent.
Work on this project includes the replacement of the structure, approach paving, and guiderail installation. The $403,000 project is a joint effort between PennDOT McKean County maintenance forces and Bob Cummins Construction, LLC., of Bradford, PA. PennDOT crews will complete the site excavation and backfill. The contractor will replace the structure, complete the approach paving, install the guide rail, and miscellaneous construction.
