    PennDOT to Host Virtual Public Meeting for Birchrun Road Bridge Replacement Project in West Vincent Township

    March 26, 2025

    King of Prussia, PA – The Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT) invites the public to attend a live virtual meeting on Wednesday, April 9, for the upcoming project to replace the bridge that carries Birchrun Road over Birch Run in West Vincent, Chester County.

    This project involves removing the existing bridge, abutments, pier, and wing walls, and replacing the structure with a wider, one-span, prestressed, adjacent plank beam bridge.

    Built in 1923, the two-span Birchrun Road bridge is 38 feet long, 19 feet wide, and carries an average of 435 vehicles per day. The bridge is currently listed in poor condition.

    As part of PennDOT's public outreach program, the department encourages the public to attend the live virtual meeting on Wednesday, April 9, beginning at 7:00 PM, by clicking on this Microsoft Live Teams meeting link prior to the presentation start time. The department’s design team will deliver a project presentation before opening the meeting to questions using the platform’s Q&A feature.

    Please note that internet access or a computer or mobile device are required to view the virtual meeting. Anyone with special needs or requiring special aid is requested to contact PennDOT Design Project Manager Connor Shelly.

    For more information on the project, please visit the Birchrun Road Bridge Replacement webpage. The public can also provide feedback on the project using the online comment form.
