The work is part of a $37.4 million federally funded project that will undertake high-priority repairs on interstate bridges to ensure safety and mobility, according to PennDOT.
Under the contract, IEW Construction Group, Inc., of Hamilton, New Jersey, will repair deteriorated bridge decks, superstructure components, and portions of the substructures.
The project is being financed with 100% federal funds, according to PennDOT.
