LEWISTOWN — The Pennsylvania Department of Transportation announced the following schedule of maintenance activities in Mifflin County the week of July 7. PennDOT performs year-round maintenance in its mission to provide a safe, efficient transportation system, and the scope of work in Mifflin County for the coming week is as follows:

Base Repair:

• Route 305 (Greenwood Road) starting a quarter mile west of Route 4006 (East Back Mountain Road) and continuing southbound to Route 655 in Union Township Monday through Wednesday;

• Route 655 between the Huntington-Mifflin County line in Menno Township and Mechanic Street in Union Township Wednesday through Friday. Flaggers in the roadway will provide traffic control during daylight hours.

Base repair is intended to repair fatigue cracked, potholed or distorted pavement sections and restore the structural integrity of the pavement. All distressed material within the area, including the material beneath the asphalt, is removed and replaced with sound material. The new material is then compacted before being overlaid with new asphalt. Base repair extends the service life of good and fair roads and provides a smooth, safe ride for motorists.

This schedule is subject to change due to weather conditions, emergencies, or other unforeseen interruptions.

Customers can report road concerns by calling 1-800-FIX-ROAD. If calling after hours, please leave a name and phone number.
