A new construction project is scheduled to get underway today in the northeast portion of Indiana County.

The project is the Straight Run Bridge #2 replacement project on Porterfield Road in Banks Township, in northern Indiana County.   It’s a full bridge replacement that will involve a 13.3 mile detour using a number of roads, including Porterfield Road, Canoe Ridge Road, Dombs Hill Road, Union Hill Road, Johnsonburg Road, Hemlock Lake Road, Glen Campbell Road, and back onto Porterfield Road.

The $971,000 project is expected to be finished in November.

RT 22 BIKE-PEDESTRIAN BRIDGE

The long-awaited bike-pedestrian bridge across Route 22 is now open! What do you think?

I love it! It will help bring more economic activity to Indiana County!
I love it! It's much needed for the safety of folks to link the trails and access both sides of that busy highway.
I love it for both of the reasons listed above (as long as they maintain it.)
It's not going to be the economic boon they're saying it will be.
Not enough people will use it to have an effect on safety.
It will not be maintained and will fall into disuse rather quickly.
