Beginning on Friday, May 18th, SR 562 will be closed from Manatawny Road to approximately 200′ west of Trumbore Lane for replacement of the bridge over Manatawny Creek. Spotts Mill Road will also be closed to through traffic in that location but can be accessed from the other end. The closure will last through May of 2019. A detour will be posted for the duration of the road closure. Work will consist of complete removal of the existing bridge and reconstruction of a new bridge in the same location. There will be some slope work on the east end of the project to lay the rock slope back to give better site visibility when heading west approaching the bridge. There will be minimal paving at each end of the bridge to tie the new structure into the existing paving. The Detour will follow Old Airport Road to SR 662. Passenger vehicles, motorcycles and light trucks will be able to turn right on SR 662. Trucks will turn left on SR 662, go down to SR 422 and turn around to come back up SR 662 to get back on SR 562 in Yellowhouse.
