Starting Tuesday, September 5, the Frederick Pike Bridge between Peters Pike and Dog Leg Road will be closed as the Montgomery County Engineers project will begin, according to a social media post by Butler Township Police.
Detours for local vehicle and truck traffic will start being Philadelphia Drive to St. Route 48 and Main Street to Dog Leg Road.
According to the Montgomery County Engineer, the project will remove the existing bridge beams and replace them with new prestressed concrete composite box beams.
There will also be moderate roadway pavement improvement and a new rock channel protection will be added along the stream banks to alleviate scour and erosion concerns.
