King of Prussia, PA – The Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT) announced today that major construction has been completed on a $3 million project to replace the bridge that carries Route 372 (Lower Valley Road) over Officers Run in Atglen Borough and West Sadsbury Township, Chester County.
PennDOT's contractor replaced the Route 372 (Lower Valley Road) structure with a single-span, prestressed concrete composite adjacent box beam bridge. It replaces the former two-span, reinforced concrete slab bridge which was built in 1937.
This project also included the realignment and restriping of the Route 41 (Gap Newport Pike) painted median and replacement of the traffic signal at the Route 372 (Lower Valley Road) and Route 41 (Gap Newport Pike) intersection.
Other project improvements included pipe culvert installation, aerial and underground gas utility relocations and wetland enhancements.
While major construction has been completed, the contractor will be performing minor activities to complete the entire project. This work is not expected to impact traffic.
Mumford and Miller Concrete, Inc., of Middletown, DE, is the general contractor on the project, which is financed with 100% federal funds.
