Road work planned for McKean & Potter counties

Bradford, PA – A Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT) road improvement project for McKean and Potter counties will get underway Monday, April 17. The project will bring improvements to more than 27 miles of road surface across sections of ten roads in the two counties--providing smoother, safer travel for regional motorists. 
Overall work includes milling and resurfacing, curbing, sidewalks, guide rail updates, and miscellaneous items. Work will vary from section to section. All work is weather and schedule dependent.
Next week, crews are scheduled to perform work at the following locations:
McKean County:  Route 155 in the northern Port Allegany area—joint repair;
Route 44 from the McKean/Potter county line to the New York state line—
joint repair;
Potter County: Route 49 from the Route 44 intersection to east of the Allegany Township line—
milling and resurfacing;
Work zones will feature a daylight alternating traffic pattern, controlled by flaggers in the roadway. Short travel delays should be expected.
Glenn O. Hawbaker, Inc. of State College is the contractor on this $5.7 million job, which is expected to finish by the end of October.

Route 346 (West Washington Street) in Bradford
