Hoorah, Rt 711 by Mirror Lake is now open.  The bridge replacement project is in the cleanup stage.  Not bad replacing a bridge in a week.  Looks nice.  Cheers.

Starting June 24^th, Route 711 will be closed on the New Florence side of Fairfield hill for bridge work.  The Tubmill Creek bridge, which is listed in “poor to serious” condition, will be replaced with a wider pre-cast concrete box culvert.  A multi-week detour is anticipated, with passenger cars diverted along a northbound route of nearly 9 miles and a southbound route of almost 14 miles.  The official detour for trucks and RV campers will take them nearly 28 miles out of the way.  Detour signs should be in place soon.  Please use caution on the detour roads.  Hopefully this work can be completed quickly.  The dates on this post are just estimates.  Changes are likely.  Please be careful.
