PennDOT to Restrict Eastbound Route 30 Bypass for Bridge Repair

King of Prussia – The Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT) today announced the eastbound right lane will be closed on the Route 30 Bypass Bridge over Route 282 and the Brandywine Creek in Downingtown Borough, Chester County, on Tuesday and Wednesday (March 9-10) from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. for bridge abutment repairs.

The work is part of PennDOT’s $2.2 million open-ended contract to repair state-owned bridges as needed in the five-county, Philadelphia region.

“The purpose of this open-ended contract is to have a contractor ready to go in case repairs need to be made to any of our bridge in the region,” PennDOT District Executive Lester Toaso said. “The contract allows us to dispatch crews quickly repair our structures and keep them open and safe for the motoring public.”

Loftus Construction, Inc. of Cinnamon, N.J. is the general contractor on the $2,200,000 project that is financed with 100 state funds. The contract expires in April 2011.

PennDOT reminds motorists they can log on to 511pa.com or call 511 from any phone to check traffic conditions on major highways before heading out.
