Possible SF Road Closure Could Affect Some Cecil Residents

South Fayette Township administrators are considering closing two roads for safety reasons, and one of those potential closures could affect a handful of Cecil residents.

According to a report from The Almanac, administrators have recommended the partial closure of two roads—Pinch Road and Coal Pit Run Road—for safety reasons.

A portion of Pinch Road, located off Tom’s Run Road, would be closed annually from Nov. 1 to April 1 because it is difficult for road crews to navigate during the winter. A permanent closure of part of Coal Pit Run Road—near the Washington County line, where the road intersects Bowman Road—also was recommended.

Currently, no one lives on that section of the road. There are some occupied residences along the Cecil Township portion of the road, but those residents would still have access to their properties from other roads and would be notified regarding the potential closure, should it occur, according to the report.

The potential road closures were a recommendation, and no final decision has been made. To read the full report from The Almanac, click here.
