The Pennsylvania Department of Transportation proposes replacement of the existing bridge along State Route 4045 (Campground Road) over Dogwood Run in Carroll Township, York County.

The purpose of the project is to address the deteriorating condition of the existing bridge and provide a sustainable crossing along Campground Road over Dogwood Run. The existing bridge was constructed in 1949 and has outlived its useful service life.  The deck is very worn, with exposed aggregate, delaminated areas, and numerous short longitudinal cracks throughout the deck surface. The existing railing does not meet current design standards.

The project will involve the replacement of the existing two span, reinforced concrete slab bridge. The proposed replacement structure is a single-span spread box beam bridge with u-shaped wingwalls. The roadway across the proposed structure will include two 11’ lanes with 4’ shoulders on both sides. Detour, Project Display 1, Project Display 2, Project Display 3.

As we all know one of the pressing issues in the Carroll Township / Dillsburg Borough area is TRAFFIC.  Now is the time to let the officials at York County know about the traffic conditions in our area!  This input is important and will help drive home the concerns and issues residents have to YCPC and YAMPO.

The York County Planning Commission (YCPC), on behalf of the York Area Metropolitan Planning Organization (YAMPO), has begun to update the Congestion Management Process (CMP), the first since 2015. In concert with updating the CMP, a public survey has been created to obtain feedback from the public about the perception and observation of congestion in York County. The goal of this survey is to gather information about the experiences, perceptions, and suggestions related to vehicular traffic and congestion locally. The responses received will help set goals and objectives for the Congestion Management Process (CMP) that reflect the desires of York County’s residents, workers, and visitors. This survey should take approximately 10 minutes to complete. The survey can be taken on the YCPC website. https://survey123.arcgis.com/share/6d8e456b3ea34b71baaae60362b44d7c?portalUrl=https://yorkcountypa.maps.arcgis.com
