PennDOT Announces Public Meeting and Online Plans Display for the Route 3020 Culvert Replacement Project in South Canaan Township, Wayne County

Dunmore, PA- The Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT) invites the public to a Public Meeting with plans display regarding the Route 3020, Section D50 Culvert Replacement Project.

The Route 3020 Section D50 project involves replacing the crossing of Route 3020 over a tributary to Lake Quinn in South Canaan Township, Wayne County. The project proposes to replace the existing concrete slab bridge with a new precast concrete box culvert.

The new structure has been designed to improve the hydraulic performance of the original bridge and maintain the existing floodplains so as not to adversely affect adjacent property owners. Roadway improvements associated with the project include full-depth reconstruction in the vicinity of the bridge with guide rail and pavement marking installations where required. Only minor utility impacts are anticipated to construct the project.

The in-person public display meeting for the project will take place on:

Date: August 7, 2024
