​Montoursville, PA - Motorists are advised that a long-term road closure will start next week on Heise Run Road (T-818) in Delmar Township, Tioga Township, for two bridge replacement projects.

On Tuesday, May 28, 2024, Heise Run Road will be closed between Route 6 and Route 660, while a Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT) bridge crew begins work on the structure closest to Route 6 that carries Heise Run Road over Heise Run. The crew will then move to the next structure. Work on the project includes removal of the existing structure, replacement with a new concrete box culvert, stream bank protection, paving, guide rail upgrades.

A detour using Route 6 and Route 660 for the duration of the project. The project is expected to be completed by October of 2024, weather permitting.
