Initial work in 2017 will feature the removal of existing
storm drain lines. Traffic control will consist of short-term lane closures and
alternating traffic patterns controlled by flaggers.
On April 4, long-term lane closures controlled by temporary
traffic signals will be implemented.
The work zone stretches along Route 6 from West Street to
Ludwig Lane. One lane of traffic will be maintained at all times, with an
alternating traffic pattern controlled by traffic signals. Opposing traffic
will use short, local detours. Availability of parking in the downtown area
will be reduced. Drivers should also be prepared for travel delays in and
around Coudersport.
Overall work will include roadway reconstruction, drainage
improvements, bridge rehabilitation, traffic signal upgrades, water line
relocation, pavement markings, and miscellaneous items.
All work is weather and schedule dependent. Glenn O.
Hawbaker, Inc. of State College is the contractor on this $4.8 million project,
which will continue through November.
