LANCASTER, PA — The Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT) announced that planned repairs on the Route 222 bridge over Church Street in East Cocalico Township have been postponed by one week.
The work, which includes bridge slab repairs and roadway concrete patching, is now scheduled to run from 8:00 p.m. Friday, September 12, through 6:00 a.m. Monday, September 15, weather permitting. Lane restrictions will be in place in both directions of Route 222, along with an 11-foot width limit.
This effort is part of a larger $7.7 million pavement preservation project spanning Route 222 from Mohler Church Road to Colonel Howard Boulevard. Improvements include resurfacing, milling, base repair, guide rail updates, line painting, sign replacements, and construction of a new entrance to the northbound weigh station between the Lancaster County line and the Adamstown/Knauers Exit in Berks County. The project is expected to conclude by February 2, 2026.
PennDOT confirmed that separate expansion dam repairs on Route 222 bridges between the Bushong Road and Pool Road overpasses remain on schedule for this weekend, September 5-8, with additional work continuing the following weekend during the same overnight hours.
New Enterprise Stone and Lime Co., Inc., of New Enterprise, Pennsylvania, is the contractor overseeing the project. Motorists are advised to expect delays and use caution in the work zones.
