PennDOT says there will be a bit of a disruption in the flow of traffic this morning on Route 422 at the Cunningham Culverts project.
Starting at about 8:30 AM, flaggers will control the traffic. It should be a brief interruption before vehicles can move freely on the temporary road that’s been in use since the project got going again at the end of March.
The project is a bridge/box culvert replacement job with a construction area that extends from the Trim Tree Road intersection to the Lions Health Camp Road intersection. Two small bridges are being replaced, one by a dual-cell box culvert and the other with a concrete pipe.
