Hopewell road project in the works

Commissioner’s Chairman Rich Bufalini provided an update and clarification on information released by PennDOT  last week. He stated that the road has to be brought up to the township’s specifications in order for the township to take it over, not Penn DOT. 

The section coming off of Mill Street has been Aliquippa’s responsibility to maintain, and a section off to the left on the road is maintained by Center Township, the rest of the road up to Shadow Lakes Boulevard is the township’s portion. 

PennDOT  expects to have everything completed by the end of November, because residents living in the area of Shadow Lakes Boulevard say they aren’t happy about the wait times to enter and exit the road. It is also causing them delays.
