Montoursville, PA – Motorists who travel Route 220 northbound and southbound in Woodward Township, Lycoming County, are advised a bridge replacement and rehabilitation project continues this week. This project will replace both structures carrying Route 220 over the Fourth Street off ramp and will also rehabilitate both structures over Antlers Lane and the Lycoming Valley Railroad.

New Traffic Patterns

• The barrier system separating northbound and southbound traffic will be moved daily to ensure two lanes of travel northbound for the morning commute and two lanes of travel southbound for the afternoon commute. During these times, the opposing direction of traffic will be restricted to one lane.
• As of Friday, May 12, 2023, the Route 220 northbound off ramp servicing Fourth Street has been reopened.
  

Week of May 30

• The contractor will continue bridge work on the northbound structures over Antlers Lane and the Railroad.
• The contractor will continue construction of northbound bridge over Ramp A, and guide rail work. This work will be completed using daily lane closures at off peak hours.
  

Motorists should be alert, slow down, expect delays, watch for changing traffic patterns, and drive with caution in the area. Motorists should approach crossovers with caution in the work zone.

Susquehanna Valley Construction Corporation is the prime contractor on this $18 million, multi-year bridge improvement project.

This construction season, the contactor is scheduled to complete the replacement and rehabilitation of the northbound structures. The southbound structures are scheduled to be completed next year.
