CLEARFIELD — A public meeting has been set for 4 to 5:30 p.m. April 20 at the Ulysses Community Center regarding the replacement of two Potter County bridges included in the Pennsylvania Department of Transportation’s (PennDOT) Rapid Bridge Replacement Project.
The meeting will be focused on important information including the construction schedule and traffic changes that are planned to take effect while the bridges are being replaced.
One bridge is on Route 449 (South Brookland Road) bridge, spanning Buckseller Run in Ulysses Township, about two miles north of the village of Walton.
During construction, drivers will be directed to follow a detour along Route 49, Route 44 (North Main Street), Route 6 (East 2nd Street) and Route 449 (North Brookland Road).
The second bridge is on West Branch Road (Route 2002) bridge, spanning Lyman Run in West Branch Township, about two miles southwest of the village of Germania Station (JV-87).
During construction, an alternating traffic pattern will be controlled by temporary traffic signals.
Representatives from Plenary Walsh Keystone Partners will be available to discuss the bridge projects and answer questions. There will be no formal presentation. Construction plans will be on display for reference.
A letter announcing the start of construction will be mailed out two weeks in advance to all project stakeholders. Attendees will be given the opportunity to sign up as a project stakeholder the night of the meeting.
