YORK COUNTY, Pa. — The closure of the Route 462 (Market Street) Bridge in Springettsbury and Spring Garden Townships in York County, has been rescheduled, according to officials at PennDOT

Originally expected to close for repairs at midnight Thursday, Sept. 22, the construction has been pushed back to midnight on Thursday, Sept. 27. The crane needed for the project being unavailable is the cause for the delay. 

A one-and-a-half month detour will be in place while the bridge is demolished. The construction will be accelerated, but the bridge is expected to remain closed until early November. 

A detour will be in place using N. Sherman Street, Route 30, and N. Hills Road. 

The project will be a replacement of the bridge, as well as approach work, guide rail updates, drainage work, ramp re-alignment, signal updates, and other miscellaneous construction.
