Reconstruction Project Continues on Main Street in Village of Scotland, Greene Township, Franklin County

Harrisburg, PA – The Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT) announced today that a new construction phase is about to begin at a nearly 1.5-mile reconstruction project on Main Street (Route 1006) in the Village of Scotland, Greene Township, Franklin County.

Weather permitting, Main Street will be closed on Wednesday, June 15, between Garver Lane and Byers Road as part of the fourth phase of this multiple phase project. A detour will be in place using Route 997 (Black Gap Road). 


This phase of the project includes the replacement of a box culvert at Mountain Run and reconstructing the roadway under the railroad bridge spanning Main Street just south of Byers Road.


This project consists of base repairs, drainage installation, resurfacing, reconstruction, curb and sidewalk installation, box culvert installation, and other miscellaneous construction the entire length of Main Street, which intersects at either end with Route 997.


Work is expected to be completed by October 2022.


Cottles Asphalt Maintenance, of New Cumberland, PA, is the prime contractor on this $4,479,265.53 project.
