Project Overview
County: Chester
State Route(s): Route 401
Local Name(s): Conestoga Road
Project Type: Bridge Replacement
This project is for the replacement of the bridge that carries Conestoga Road (Route 401) over Pickering Creek in West Pikeland Township, Chester County. The existing bridge is a single-span reinforced concrete T-beam bridge that was constructed in 1938. The bridge is posted with weight restrictions and is in overall poor condition.
The proposed construction includes replacing the existing bridge with a slightly longer and wider bridge on the same general alignment as the existing bridge. Related construction includes replacing guide rail and end treatments; resurfacing the pavement on the bridge approaches, and signing and pavement marking installation.
