Motorists in southern Butler County are advised to be prepared for the next step in a significant road project on Route 228 beginning today.
PennDOT says the next phase of the Balls Bend Safety Improvement Project will include the opening of two jughandles weather permitting at 8 p.m. A jughandle which is a type of ramp that allows drivers to change directions without stopping the flow of traffic.
This phase will also include a new alignment for 228 in both directions from the bridge to Route 8, a new signalized intersection at the intersection with Harbison Road, and the closure of Park Road through October 21st with a detour using State, Denny, and Three Degree Road.
The overall cost for this project is $26.5 million and it is expected to be completed in January of 2025.
