The state Department of Transportation will close a portion of Carbondale Road in Waverly Twp. spanning Ackerly Creek next week for a culvert replacement project.
The road will be shuttered to motorists from state Route 407 to Interstate 81 beginning Monday through the fall, officials announced Thursday.
PennDOT has set up the following detours around the closed road portion:
• Traveling east on Carbondale Road: Continue straight on Route 407 northbound for nearly three miles, then turn right onto Route 524 east, continue on Route 524 east for three miles, turn right onto I-81 south, then continue on I-81 south for a mile and take Exit 197 for Route 632.
• Traveling West on Carbondale Road: Turn right onto I-81 north for one mile, then take Exit 199 for Route 524, turn left onto Route 524 west, continue on Route 524 west for three miles, then turn left onto Route 407 south and continue on Route 407 south for almost three miles. The detour will end at the intersection of Route 407 south and Carbondale Road.
