Lincoln Road over Hammer Creek - Bridge Replacement planned for June-November 2021

PennDOT plans to replace the bridge superstructure that travels over Route 1024 (Lincoln Road).  This project is located at the bridge that carries Lincoln Road over Hammer Creek at the border of Clay and Warwick townships, roughly three miles northeast of the Borough of Lititz. 

The purpose of this project is to address structural deficiencies of the bridge and provide continued safe and efficient crossing of Lincoln Road over Hammer Creek.

The project consists of replacing the almost 50-year old prestressed concrete beams and deck, new approach pavement, rock scour protection, guiderail, and minor drainage updates. The bridge will be maintained at its current width and will include two 11-foot lanes and 8-foot shoulders.

The bridge will be closed to all traffic for approximately five months during construction. A detour will use Route 1024 (Lincoln Road) to Route1035 (Brunnerville Road/Clay Creek Road) to Route 322.

The Conestoga Trail, which runs parallel to Hammer Creek on the west bank, will be maintained for pedestrian traffic throughout construction.
