PennDOT Announces Online Plans Display for Harmony Grove Rd Bridge

Harrisburg, PA – The Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT) announces a Plans Display for the preservation of the Route 4014 (Harmony Grove Road) bridge over Conewago Creek in Dover and Warrington Townships, York County.

This project involves making repairs to extend the life of the existing pre-stressed concrete spread box beam bridge on Harmony Grove Road over the Conewago Creek. The proposed work will include bridge deck resurfacing, expansion joint replacement, beam end repairs, bridge railing repairs, and guide rail updates. There will also be roadway approach work involving paving on both sides of the bridge to provide a smooth transition to the new bridge deck surface. Acquisition of temporary construction easement will be required in the southeast quadrant of the bridge for contractor access to complete the work.

During construction, Harmony Grove Road will be closed to traffic between Detters Mill Road and Conewago Road. A full detour will be implemented to complete the work. It is anticipated the detour will be in place for eight consecutive weeks. Additional work may be performed after the roadway is re-opened to traffic using short-term lane restrictions.

The project is scheduled to be bid for construction in Fall of 2024 with construction estimated to take place in the Spring/Summer 2025 construction season.  The estimated construction cost is $1,200,000.

Information including an interactive comment form, can be found by visiting the PennDOT District 8 website clicking on Public Meetings listed under the Resources heading, and choosing the York County box then the tile marked Harmony Grove Road Bridge Over Conewago Creek.

The purpose of the plans display is to introduce the project and receive public input regarding any questions or concerns with the project. It is also an opportunity for the public to review and comment on the project’s potential effect upon Cultural Resources pursuant to the Advisory Council on Historic Preservation’s 36 CFR Part 800 regulations implementing Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act.
