Route 11/15 Juniata River Bridge Preservation Project (PA Bike Route J & U.S. Bike Route 11)
Public Comment Period Open through 2/12/26
The Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT) invites the public to view the online plans display for the US 11/15 bridge preservation project. This project is located over the Juniata River in Reed Township, Dauphin County, and Penn Township, Perry County, approximately 1.5 miles northeast of Duncannon, PA. The purpose of this project is to extend the life of the bridge and provide continued safe and efficient crossing of US 11/15 over the Juniata River.
The project consists of miscellaneous steel repairs, fatigue treatments, painting of steel superstructure, joint replacements, and the placement of a latex modified concrete (LMC) overlay. A protective fence will be installed on the exterior barriers and guide rail to bridge barrier connections will be upgraded. Construction will be completed utilizing staged construction. Single lane closures northbound and southbound will maintain one lane of traffic in each direction.
Please comment that provision for safe bike/pedestrian/micromobility transit across the bridge during construction is essential/necessary!
The project is currently in design and construction work is expected to take place in the 2027 construction season.
A plans display will be held online only. A digital version of the information will be available to view online from January 7, 2026 to February 12, 2026.
