Traffic Pattern Change in Cameron County

PennDOT has made traffic pattern changes to a Cameron County bridge on Route 4004 (Ridge Valley Road). Effective today, the Bobby’s Run Bridge in Shippen Township will feature a single-lane traffic pattern with a self-regulating stop sign. This change will require motorists to take turns crossing the bridge. The change allows PennDOT to remove the weight posting it put into place last week. The bridge is located on Route 4004 near the Lewis and Hockenberry sawmill. The Bobby’s Run Bridge was built in 1944; is 33 feet long and carries an average of 1,037 vehicles per day. The stop condition for the bridge will remain in place until repairs can be made later this year. PennDOT reminds motorists they can log on to 511pa.com or call 511 from any phone to check traffic conditions before heading out.
