​Montoursville, PA – Motorists are advised that a bridge replacement project is set to begin in April on Route 1013 (Jackson Center Road) in Jackson Township, Tioga County.

On Monday, April 3, 2023, Jackson Center Road will be closed at the intersection with Tower Hill Road (T-668) and Lake Road (T-669), while a Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT) maintenance crew begins a bridge replacement project over Hammond Creek. 

A detour using Route 1011 (Bailey Creek Road), Route 549, and Route 1018 (Pony Hill Road) will be in place.  Work on the project is expected to be completed by the end of June, weather permitting.

Work includes removal of the existing bridge and replacement with a new pre-cast box culvert. Additional work includes paving, line painting, and new guide rail.

Motorists should be alert, slow down, expect travel delays, and drive with caution.
