SHREWSBURY– The Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT) announced today that bridge deck repairs are set to begin next week on the northbound and southbound Interstate 83 bridges spanning Tolna Road (T-441) just south of Exit 4 (Route 851/Shrewsbury) in Shrewsbury Township, York County.
Weather permitting, this work will begin at 9:00 PM the night of Wednesday, July 5. Lane restrictions will be in place in both directions on the bridges for three-to-four weeks. The contractor will close the left lanes in both directions of I-83 so work can be performed in the right lanes. After that work is complete, the right lanes will be closed in both directions so work can be performed in the left lanes.
Motorists should be alert and drive with caution through the work zone.
Once all work is complete, the bridges will be open to unrestricted traffic.
JD Eckman, Inc., of Atglen, PA, is the contractor for this work.
