Project Overview
The Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT) invites the public to a virtual plans display and in-person public plans presentation regarding the Route 4014 (Winterdale Road), Section 651 Culvert Replacement Project over Hiawatha Creek.
The purpose of the project is to provide a sustainable crossing over Hiawatha Creek that provides a two-lane bridge, addresses hydraulic deficiencies at the site due to the existing structure, and provides continued access to local residents, businesses, and emergency services.
The project consists of replacing the two existing pipe culverts that carry Route 4014 (Winterdale Road) over Hiawatha Creek in Scott Township, Wayne County with a new box culvert. The permanent approach roadway work will include a profile adjustment of Route 4014 and tie-ins with the existing roadway at the project limits. The project also includes a profile adjustment of T-766 (Faigle Road) at its intersection with Route 4014. Additionally, guide rail updates, new roadside barriers over the bridge, and new drainage pipes will be installed. There is one aerial utility crossing that requires relocation.
It is anticipated that construction will begin spring of 2025 and will be complete by the fall of 2025.
Public Meeting
The in-person public display meeting for both projects will take place at:
- Time: 7:00 PM
- Date: Monday, November 13, 2023
- Location: Sherman Community Center, 197 Sherman Road, Susquehanna, PA
The virtual plans display and comment form will remain online from November 13, 2023, to December 4, 2023
The purpose of the public meeting and virtual plans display is to introduce the project and the associated maintenance and protection of traffic during construction to receive public questions, comments, or other input regarding the project.
Detour
A detour for through traffic will be required throughout construction. Route 4014 traffic will initially use a 3.7-mile detour using a township road and a state road, including: T-766 (Faigle Road) and Route 4037 (Scott Center Road). Upon installation of the new culvert and prior to the start of approach roadway reconstruction, traffic will then use a 13.0-mile detour using all state roads, including: Route 4014 (Winterdale Road), Route 4012 (Pleasant Valley Road) and Route 4037 (Scott Center Road).
