PennDOT hosting meeting to discuss bridge preservation

By PATRICK BUCHNOWSKI
The Tribune-Democrat

ROCKWOOD Residents will get a look at plans for preserving a Middlecreek Township bridge at a public meeting next month, PennDOT officials said.

Transportation officials will display plans to bolster the Barronvale Bridge on Route 3014 near the covered bridge.

The meeting will be held from 5:30 to 6:30 p.m. Wednesday at the Middlecreek Township Municipal Building, 512 Fall Run Road in Rockwood.

The public can “view the project and detour plan,” PennDOT Project Manager Alice M. Hammond said.

“Most people will be interested in the detour and how it will affect them,” she said.

Traffic will be detoured for about nine weeks, she said.

Hammond said the bridge is considered safe for motorists, but an upgrade is needed.

“We’re doing it to get longer life out of the beam,” she said.

PennDOT representatives and a design consultant will be available to answer questions.

The $500,000 replacement of the concrete deck will begin this fall or the spring of 2009, Hammond said.
