Jefferson County, PA – The Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT) invites the public to view plans regarding the State Route 2011 – Cloe-Rossiter Road project on November 16, 2021. 

The purpose of this project is to replace the existing structure carrying State Route 2011 (Cloe-Rossiter Road) over an Unnamed Tributary to Canoe Creek in Bell Township, Jefferson County. State Route 2011 serves as a north/south connection between the Borough of Punxsutawney to the north of the structure and rural lands to the south.

During a portion of construction, closing State Route 2011 (Cloe-Rossiter Road) will be necessary.  The closure will last approximately two months, and traffic will be detoured along a signed route:  PA Route 36 to US Route 119 to Snyder Hill Road to Altman Avenue Extension to State Route 2013.

Access between T-496 (Ridge Road) and the southern part of State Route 2011 (Cloe-Rossiter Road) will be maintained at all times. The detour will be publicized and coordinated with the Punxsutawney Area School District, Jefferson County Emergency Services, and the USPS.

In accordance with Governor Wolf's COVID-19 mitigation efforts, the plans display will be held online only.  Comments and questions may be submitted through the webpage by clicking the Submit Comments tile.

The purpose of the plans display for this project is to share preliminary information on the project's status, schedule, design and right-of-way acquisition.  They will be available on the website until December 7, 2021.
