PA 921/Canal Road Betterment Project
Highway and Bridge Improvements
Location: York County, PA
Owner: Multiple Entities
Status: Completed
Construction Cost: $3.5 Million
The Project:
The project along PA 921 in Conewago and East Manchester Township, York County, was a cooperative effort among several municipalities, PennDOT, York County, and multiple business entities. It involved improvements to state-owned roadways to support the addition of over 3 million square feet of warehouse development.
Erdman Anthony was selected to provide engineering design services for various improvements within the project area.
Features/Solutions:
One section of the project has been advanced through construction. Its key features include:
- Reconstruction/realignment of over 1 mile of Canal Road and Locust Point Road
- Addition of turn lanes, shoulders, and a new drainage collection system
- Addition of traffic signals and improved sight distance at the Canal Road/Locust Point intersection
- Addition of infiltration trenches and other stormwater management features
Impacts:
The improvements will accommodate the additional traffic, most notably the significant increase in truck traffic, associated with the commercial development along this section of the Interstate 83 corridor.
