New Freedom Road Turnpike Bridge To Debut
The project is part of a long-term effort to extend Freedom Road to the Beaver County line.
CRANBERRY TOWNSHIP, PA — The first phase of a multi-project renovation and expansion of Freedom Road is completed. The new Freedom Road Turnpike Bridge will have a grand opening ceremony next week, township officials announced.
Work began in the spring of 2019 to replace an existing span over the Pennsylvania Turnpike with a wider span. A new six-lane bridge was constructed in sections off-site and moved into final position that required only short-term road closures.
Two other projects will expand Freedom Road to the Beaver County line:
