Change to Bradford Bypass Work Area
The westbound lanes of Bolivar Drive under the Route 219 overpass won’t be closed next week after all.
PennDOT says work will continue on the road with flaggers present, but there will be an alternating traffic pattern.
Also next week, work on the Elm Street on-ramp will continue as crews place concrete for a new barrier wall.
Motorists at both locations should expect delays.
