Intersection at Derry, 19th and Berryhill streets
A project to improve safety along a Harrisburg roadway is rolling along.
PennDOT announced on Tuesday that the public may now view plans for its Route 3012 (Derry Street) Improvement Project, which will span Swatara Township, Paxtang Borough and Harrisburg.
The road construction will extend from the intersection of Mulberry and Derry streets to the intersection of Rosewood Lane and Derry Street. Proposed work would include milling and overlay of the existing pavement, signing and pavement marking upgrades and sidewalk and crosswalk improvements.
The design specifically addresses the intersections at 21st and Derry streets and Berryhill, 19th and Derry streets with proposed improvements to pedestrian crosswalks and improved school zone signing, as Rowland Intermediate School and Scott Elementary School are both nearby.
Proposed plans to intersections at Berryhill, 19th and Derry streets and 21st and Derry streets.
PennDOT decided on the recommended improvements after completing a corridor safety study and meeting with local officials.
The project is currently in the design phase and construction work is expected to take place in 2024.
The public can view and comment on project information on PennDOT’s website through Jan. 30.
The project documents can be made available in alternative languages or formats if requested. For translation/interpretation services or special concerns that require individual attention, contact Adam Wright, PennDOT project manager, at adamwright@pa.gov, or 717-772-4028.
