The Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT) today announced prime contractor HRI, Inc., of State College, will adjust traffic patterns on Wednesday, July 29, as part of the Hopewell Bridge Replacement Project in Hopewell Borough, Bedford County.
Wednesday, July 29, a traffic change will take place to remove one set of temporary traffic signals and place traffic onto two lanes of the new alignment on Route 26. Temporary Traffic Signals on Routes 26 and 915 for single-lane phased traffic control at the intersection, will remain.
Delays may be possible as signals cycle. Motorists should use caution when traveling through the area by watching for workers and equipment moving in and out of the work area.
Overall work on the project consists of the replacement of the Hopewell bridge that carries Route 915 over the Raystown Branch of the Juniata River, realignment of Route 26, construction of retaining walls along the river, rock slope stabilization, and slope lay back operations. Work is weather dependent.
All work on this $11.5 million project is expected to be completed by mid-August of 2020.
Work on this project will be in accordance with Centers for Disease Control and state Department of Health guidance as well as a project-specific COVID-19 safety plan, which will include protocols for social distancing, use of face coverings, personal and job-site cleaning protocols, management of entries to the job-site, and relevant training.
