Gas Line Work to Begin This Sunday Night at Route 322 and Chambers Hill Road in Swatara Township, Dauphin County
Work is within the limits of the Route 322/Chambers Hill Road Intersection Improvement Project
Harrisburg, PA – The Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT) announced today that a contractor is scheduled to install new gas line along Chambers Hill Road and across Route 322 at the intersection with Chambers Hill Road in Swatara Township, Dauphin County. This work will be performed within PennDOT’s ongoing Route 322/Chambers Hill Road Improvement Project.
Gas line work is expected to begin the night of Sunday, August 4, and continue from 9:00 PM to 6:00 AM Sunday through Thursday nights for the next two weeks.
The work on Chambers Hill Road will extend from Webner Road to the intersection of Route 322 and across Route 322. There will be traffic impacts during work hours.
Motorists should be alert and drive with caution through the work zone.
The Route 322/Chambers Hill Road Improvement Project consists of the reconstruction of the intersection of Route 322 with Grayson Road and Chambers Hill Road.
The Route 322 signalized intersection with Grayson Road and Chambers Hill Road (Route 3006) is being reconstructed to four approaches with left-turn lanes removed from Route 322.
One through lane will be added in each direction of Route 322.
Eastbound Route 322 left turns have been replaced with the new jug handle and signal at Witmer Road. The current left turn lane on eastbound Route 322 at Chambers Hill Road is permanently closed. No left turns from eastbound Route 322 are permitted at this intersection.
Westbound Route 322 left turns will be replaced with a new roundabout and bypass lanes at the intersection with Milroy Road and Grayson Road.
Construction of three retaining walls will accommodate the widening and geometry, as well as the addition of dynamic message signs, stormwater management basins, drainage, guiderail, barrier, signs and upgraded pavement markings, and other miscellaneous construction.
This project is expected to be completed by August 18, 2027. J.D. Eckman, Inc., of Atglen, PA, is the prime contractor on this $38,561,349 project.
