Motorists should be aware of roadwork planned for Thursday which will result in a couple of local road closures.
Crews are working on a storm water project and restoring asphalt on a portion of Schaffner Road from Butler Road to Beck Road. As a result, the Butler Township Public Works Department is closing that portion of Schaffner Road from 7 a.m. to 3 p.m. Thursday. Bus traffic will be accommodated early but other motorists will not be able to access the area until the project is completed.
Then in Center Township, a portion of Holyoke Road will be closed from 7 a.m. to 3 p.m. Thursday. Between Ietto Drive and West Sunbury Road (Route 308) crews are making drainage improvements including repairing and replacing pipe. Closing the road to traffic will allow for the project to be accomplished more safely.
