SR 27 over pine creek - bridge sediment removal

The Federal Highway Administration awarded the Pennsylvania Department of Transportation $3.201 million on May 1, 2026, under the Promoting Resilient Operations for Transformative, Efficient, and Cost-Saving Transportation (PROTECT) program (CFDA 20.284) for partial design and construction of bridge protection measures at 25 locations throughout Crawford, Erie, Forest, Mercer, Venango, and Warren Counties in northwestern Pennsylvania. The measures will reduce scour and improve the resiliency of the transportation network in the region. Performance runs through May 1, 2030. The PROTECT program provides funding to strengthen surface transportation resilience to natural hazards, including climate change, sea level rise, flooding, and extreme weather events.
