Paving Update: Rossmoyne Manor

Lower Allen Township Paving Update for Rossmoyne Manor
Lower Allen Township’s paving contractor, E.K. Services, is scheduled to begin paving operations on Monday, August 24, 2026.

Paving is a three-step process, so residents may see crews working on a street at different times throughout the project:

1) Milling – Crews will remove the existing roadway surface.
2) Scratch/Leveling Course – A layer of asphalt will be placed to help level and prepare the roadway.
3) Paving Fabric & Final Overlay – Paving fabric will be installed, followed by the new asphalt wearing course to complete the roadway.

Parking & Road Closures

E.K. Services will place “No Parking” signs along curblines in advance of scheduled work. If possible, residents are asked to park on an adjacent street while work is taking place.

Roads will be temporarily closed during paving operations and will reopen once the newly placed asphalt has cooled and it is safe for traffic.

Please use caution around construction crews and equipment and plan for temporary delays while work is underway.

PennDot Notice: Field Work Planned for Next Week on Market Street in Lemoyne and Wormleysburg Boroughs, Cumberland County

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: August 19, 2026

Field Work Planned for Next Week on Market Street in Lemoyne and Wormleysburg Boroughs, Cumberland County

Work is associated with the future Lemoyne Bottleneck Improvements project.

Harrisburg, PA – The Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT) announced today that field work is planned for next week on Market Street (Route 1010) and Front Street (Route 1027) in Cumberland County. Subsurface utility engineering (SUE) crews will be locating underground utilities and surveying within the limits of the future Lemoyne Bottleneck Improvements project in Lemoyne and Wormleysburg Boroughs.

Weather permitting, this work will be performed daily from 8:30 AM to 3:30 PM and 6:00 PM to 2:00 AM beginning Monday, August 24, and ending Saturday August 29, from North Third Street (Route 2035) to Front Street (Route 1027).

There may be lane closures, as needed, in both directions of Market Street and Front Street during work hours.

Motorists should be alert and drive with caution through the work zone.

The Lemoyne Bottleneck Improvements project primarily addresses high levels of stress for bicyclists and pedestrians due to issues including high traffic volumes, curved roadway alignment, limited sight distance, inconsistent or nonexistent shoulder widths, and the poor condition and narrow width of sidewalks along the corridor and at Norfolk Southern railroad bridges.

This project is currently in the design phase and is estimated to go to construction in 2027.
