CLEARFIELD – With beam and deck rehabilitation work complete, PennDOT will re-open a bridge on state Route 2017(Scotch Hollow Road) in the village of Coal Run on Aug. 20. The bridge, which spans Coal Run in Clearfield County, has been closed since July 6.
Once the bridge is re-opened, PennDOT will lift the detour that has been in effect.
Swank Associated Companies of New Kensington, Allegheny County was the contractor on this project. The project was financed with federal funds from the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA) and is part of a $2.2 million contract to rehabilitate seven bridges in Clearfield and Potter counties.
This project is part of PennDOT’s more than $66 million investment of federal economic recovery funds being spent on 17 transportation projects across the nine counties of District 2.
