EAST HEMPFIELD TWP, PA — Drivers using the Centerville Road interchange in Lancaster County should prepare for an unusual overnight traffic pattern this weekend as PennDOT crews perform drainage work adjacent to westbound Route 30.
At a Glance
- Roads Affected: Centerville Road Interchange at westbound Route 30
- Dates: June 28-29, 2026
- Times: 8:00 PM Sunday-6:00 AM Monday
- Reason: Erosion and sediment work
According to PennDOT, erosion and sediment work is scheduled from 8:00 p.m. Sunday, June 28, until 6:00 a.m. Monday, June 29, adjacent to the westbound Route 30 acceleration lane and ramp from Centerville Road in East Hempfield Township.
The ramp to westbound Route 30 will remain open during the work. However, drivers will be required to stop at the end of the ramp before merging onto westbound Route 30.
No detour has been announced, but motorists should expect minor delays and exercise caution when entering the highway. Plan extra time for travel if using the interchange overnight.
The work involves maintenance on a drainage ditch adjacent to the highway and is expected to be completed in a single night, weather permitting.
The project is part of the broader $36.3 million Centerville Road Interchange Improvement Project, which includes bridge replacement, roadway widening, drainage improvements, pavement resurfacing, guiderail and traffic signal upgrades, ADA improvements, and other infrastructure enhancements.
Construction extends along Centerville Road from Cornerstone Drive to Marietta Avenue (Route 23) and along Marietta Avenue from Centerville Road to Stony Battery Road.
Drivers traveling through the area should remain alert for changing traffic patterns and follow all posted work zone signs.
