SR 222/SR 30 Interchange Reconstruction

The SR 222 and SR 30 corridors are vital routes for Lancaster County’s commuters, regional commercial traffic, and the area’s many visitors. Population growth, additional truck traffic from commercial development, and a booming tourist industry have resulted in long traffic backups and safety concerns.

One mile of SR 222 is being expanded from four to six lanes through the use of the existing grass median, reducing right-of-way impacts. Several ramps are also being reconfigured, which will improve the flow of traffic from SR 30 to SR 222 and SR 272. Two ramp bridges are being replaced, and the under clearance of a third bridge is being improved through the lowering of SR 222.

As PennDOT’s construction inspection and construction management consultant, Erdman Anthony provided constructability reviews prior to the start of construction and is currently documenting the contractor’s work, managing stakeholder coordination, and assisting with construction scheduling and other as-needed services.

After the project is completed, one of Lancaster County’s busiest interchanges will be better equipped to handle high traffic volumes, providing a safer, smoother connection for everyone traveling through the corridor.
