​Route 4001 over Van Auken Creek


Project Overview

PennDOT invites the public to a public meeting and online plans display for the Route 4001, Bridge Replacement Project over Van Auken Creek in Clinton Township, Wayne County.

The bridge is located on Route 4001 between Route 296 (Belmont Turnpike) and Little Keen Road.

The proposed replacement includes a precast concrete box culvert. Work is expected to occur during the 2024 construction season.

The existing metal pipe arch bridge was built in 1962 and is posted with a 10-ton weight limit. Approximately 325 vehicles a day use the bridge, on average.

Public Meeting and Plans Display

A public meeting will be held 

  • Time: 7:00 PM (Part of the Clinton Township’s monthly Board of Supervisors meeting)
  • Date: June 14, 2023
  • Location: Clinton Township Municipal Building located at 1977 White Oak Drive, Forest City, PA 18421

The plans will be on display at the Clinton Township municipal building from June 14, 2023, to July 12, 2023, during posted operating hours. For available viewing times, please contact Clinton Township at 570-785-5937. 

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.

The public is encouraged to respond to the public questionnaire and provide comments by clicking on the Public Questionnaire.

The roadway will be closed to vehicular traffic and detoured at the bridge during construction.  A 5-mile detour will be posted using Route 296 (Belmont Turnpike), Route 4002 (Stanton Drive), and Route 4001 (Elk Lake Drive).
