The bridge spans the South Branch of Oswayo Creek, about a
mile southeast of the village of Hebron Center. It carries an average of almost
1,500 vehicles daily.
Construction is expected to begin during the week of May 9
and be complete in early August. During this time, an alternating traffic
pattern will be controlled by temporary traffic signals.
In the event of unfavorable weather or unforeseen
activities, this schedule may change.
This bridge is referred to as JV-81 and is one out of the
558 bridges being replaced under the Rapid Bridge Replacement Project. JV
references the joint-venture partnership between Walsh/Granite, which is
leading construction for the entire project.
The Rapid Bridge Replacement Project is a public-private
partnership (P3) between PennDOT and Plenary Walsh Keystone Partners (PWKP),
under which PWKP will finance, design, replace, and maintain the bridges for 25
years. The P3 approach will allow PennDOT to replace the bridges more quickly
while achieving significant savings and minimizing impacts on motorists.
