Montoursville, PA – Motorists are advised that Route 4001 (Wattles Run Road) will be closed between Snay Road (T-529) and Butler Road (T-332), in Clymer Township, Tioga County, for a bridge replacement project.

On Monday, April 4, a Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT) maintenance crew will begin work to replace the bridge that carries Wattles Run Road over an unnamed tributary to Wattles Run near Butler Road. A detour using Route 349 and Route 49 will be in place for the duration of the project.
