Work also planned on westbound Route 283 ramps

Harrisburg, PA – Beginning Sunday night, a contactor will implement a nighttime lane restriction on State Road (Route 722) at the widening and reconstruction project at the Route 283/Landisville Interchange in Lancaster County. 

Traffic will be reduced to a single lane under flagging so the contractor can pave State Road. Paving also will be performed on the westbound Route 283 off ramp to State Road and the on ramp from State Road to westbound Route 283.

This work will be performed from 8 PM to 6 AM through Thursday night, August 5. Work will continue during those same hours the nights of Sunday, August 8 through Thursday, August 12.

This work is part of a $18,467,109 contract awarded to New Enterprise Stone & Lime Co., Inc., of the Village of New Enterprise, Bedford County, and includes the widening and reconstruction of State Road through the Route 283 interchange under phased construction, replacement of the Route 722 bridge over Route 283 and the bridge that carries the municipally-owned section of State Road over the Amtrak railroad tracks, installation of drainage and storm water basins, reconstruction of the four interchange ramps, traffic signal work, and installation of new guiderail, signs and pavement markings.
