Bridge Work Moved Back

Access to the Irwin Run Canoe Launch will be extremely limited the week of August 3 as work continues on the Irwin Run Bridge, so boaters are encouraged to use alternate launches.

On August 3, the contractor will set the second half of the pre-cast, reinforced concrete bridge. This involves 12 wide loads carrying sections of the bridge traveling from Ridgway to the bridge site. This is scheduled to start at 6 a.m. and will continue until late evening.

Flaggers will control traffic and motorists will be stopped as each section is unloaded. Delays may occur along routes 219, 948 and 3002. Traffic will be stopped on Route 3002 as each section arrives at the bridge site.

All work is weather dependent. PennDOT expects the project to be finished in September.

This work had been set to start on Wednesday, but is being changed because of scheduling conflicts.
