Have you got something to say about improvement plans for Route 910 at the Pearce Mill Road intersection in Pine Township?
If you answered yes, then you need to be at Pine Community Center from 4 to 6 p.m. on Thursday, Sept. 6.
PennDOT District 11, in cooperation with Pine Township, is looking for feedback on the project to widen and improve about 1,610 feet of Route 910 (Wexford Road) from Lyndhurst Circle to west of Pearce Mill Road.
The improvements will provide a center left-turn lane and improvements to the Route 910/Pearce Mill Road intersection.
The plan also includes replacing two bridges that carry Route 910 over the North Fork of Pine Creek and a tributary to the North Fork of Pine Creek.
"Feedback from the community is a vital aspect of the project and residents are encouraged to attend the meeting and provide input to help identify any project issues," a PennDOT press release states.
The project is tentatively scheduled for construction next year.
PennDOT and project team representatives will be in attendance to share engineering and environmental updates about the project.
The display location is compliant with the Americans with Disabilities Act.
If you are unable to attend and would like information on the project, please contact Project Manager John Zelesnak at (412) 429-2800 or by email at jzelesnak@pa.gov

How about this- instead- let's use the Pine $ for getting the Red Belt and Pearce Mill plowed during the winter before someone dies on them or one of our busses crash? I am sure with all of these Penndot projects, Spagnolo, the School District, and the Police can lean on them a bit to make those roads a higher priority on their list. The Red Belt is a main road to the Middle School and High School and I am guessing I am not the only one angry about it every winter. In fact, I am getting to know Sam at Penndot pretty well now and they are now in my iPhone contact list. Better yet- why doesn't Pine take over its portion of those roads.? I know it can be done. Let's spend some $ there.

Hey - since we're off-topic...tell me Parent #2, how do you know that Pine Township can take over the maintenance of a state road? Please inform us all of your knowledge related to liability issues related to a township government owning maintenance of a state road? Since this is so easy, why don't you put a plan together and submit it to Pine Township? If you do, make sure you let us all know how it goes, but I doubt it will ever get beyond just whining about it here.
