Route 1010 Valley Brook Road Closure Scheduled to Begin in Washington County - 06/28/2023

Uniontown, PA – PennDOT District 12 would like to inform motorists that a portion of Route 1010 (Valley Brook Road) is scheduled to close in Peters Township, Washington County on Wednesday, July 5 until early November, weather and operational dependent.

Route 1010 (Valley Brook Road) will be closed between the intersection of Valley Brook Road and Bebout Road and the intersection of Valley Brook Road and East McMurray Road. No through traffic is permitted. Only local traffic will be able to access the closed portion of Valley Brook Road.

The posted detour will utilize Route 1002 (East McMurray Road) and Route 1010 (Bebout Road). 

This work is part of a $2.3 million project that replaces the existing three-way stop controlled "T-Intersection" with a roundabout, drainage, bituminous paving, signage, lighting, guiderail, and utility relocations. A. Folino Construction was awarded the bid. The project is anticipated to be completed in November 2023. 

Update - June 16, 2023
Valley Brook Road will be closed to through traffic between E. McMurray Road & Bebout Road, starting Monday, June 26, 2023.  Please follow the posted detour signs or seek an alternate route.  Valley Brook Road businesses will remain open to traffic.

PennDOT Announcement - February 28, 2023
PennDOT District 12 is announcing weekday daylight single-lane restrictions are scheduled to occur on Route 1010 (Bebout Road) at the intersection with Valley Brook Road in Peters Township, Washington County. Weekday daylight single-lane restrictions, controlled by flaggers, will begin on Wednesday, March 1 and occur through the end of March, weather and operational dependent.

A contractor for Pennsylvania American Water Company will perform work to relocate a water line in advance of the Valley Brook Road and Bebout Road Intersection Improvement Project.  

The $2.3 million Valley Brook Road and Bebout Road Intersection Improvement Project will involve the replacement of the existing three-way stop controlled "T-Intersection" with a roundabout, drainage, bituminous paving, signage, lighting, guiderail, and utility relocations. Valley Brook Road serves as a primary commuter connection to Route 19 and the larger Pittsburgh region. During peak times, the intersection experiences substantial congestion from the surge in commuter traffic. Because the intersection experiences significant delays during peak times, the purpose of the project is to relieve congestion and enhance access to the Arrowhead Trail parking lot, by constructing a single-lane roundabout at the intersection.  The contractor for this project is A. Folino Construction.  The project is anticipated to be completed in Fall of 2023.

Sanitary Authority Projects

McCombs Road Sanitary Sewer Replacement Project

Please be advised that Peters Creek Sanitary Authority (PCSA) is planning for a sanitary sewer replacement project on McCombs Road at an undetermined time in the future. However, the work being conducted now is all preliminary design work.  The proposed project consists of in-trench replacement of approximately 6,750 linear feet of existing sanitary sewer with larger diameter sewer as necessary to increase the capacity of the sanitary sewer trunk line to preclude future sanitary sewage backups in this area.  In addition, the existing manholes will be replaced.  All existing sanitary sewer service lines will be reconnected to the new larger diameter sanitary sewer mainline.  Again, the work being conducted now is all preliminary design work only.

The proposed line replacement is located parallel to McCombs Road on the lower side.  This proposed sanitary sewer replacement project would significantly improve the PCSA sanitary sewer system by providing more sewer capacity to reduce surcharging.  

During the months of April and May 2023, PCSA’s Engineer, Lennon, Smith, Souleret Engineering, Inc. (LSSE) will be conducting preliminary design work in the area of McCombs Road.   This preliminary work will include Closed-Circuit Television (CCTV) of the sanitary sewer line.  Please feel free to ask any of the LSSE workmen for their identification.  In addition, PCSA will post additional details as applicable going forward.  If you have any questions, please feel free to call the PCSA office at 724-348-6860.
