LACKAWANNA COUNTY, Pa. — The westbound bridge on I-84 has reopened after five years in Lackawanna County.
PennDOT announced on Thursday afternoon the completion of the Twin Bridges on Interstate 84 between Dunmore and Roaring Brook. The westbound bridge reopened Thursday afternoon after five years of construction.
The project began in 2020 to replace the twin bridges built in the late 1970s. The project began with the construction of the eastbound bridge in the median between the two original bridges. Once the eastbound bridge was complete, eastbound lanes were moved to the west side of the new bridge, and westbound lanes were moved to its east side.
That process allowed crews to demolish the original westbound bridge and construct the new one.
Officials say they’ll rehab the abandoned Erie and Wyoming railroad bridge; the project is expected to wrap up in the summer of 2026.
