  • Chapter Four
    CHAPTER FOUR EXISTING TRANSPORTATION SYSTEM INVENTORY WITH NEEDS ASSESSMENT ANALYSIS This Chapter of the WATS Long Range Transportation Plan provides a description of the existing multi-modal transportation system in Lycoming County encompassing highways and bridges, public transportation, airports, railroads and bike / pedestrian facilities. There are no waterway or inland ports located in the County. An inventory of current transportation assets by transportation mode will be provided, including a current physical condition and operational performance needs assessment. This data driven inventory and assessment is important to properly address transportation asset management needs and to improve operational performance of the overall system in terms of public safety, security, efficiency and cost effective movement of people and goods. HIGHWAY SYSTEM Highway Designations / Classification System According to the PennDOT Bureau of Planning and Research, there are 1,995.18 linear miles of publicly owned roadways throughout Lycoming County. PennDOT owns 716.59 linear miles, (35%) of public roadways in Lycoming County. In addition, there are 1,258.86 miles, (63%) of locally-owned roadways owned by 52 different local municipalities included on the PennDOT Liquid Fuels System. Other agencies own the remainder of roads in the County. Lycoming County government only owns two roads which are County Farm Road at the Lysock View county complex housing the Department of Public Safety (911 center), Pre- Release and county farm and an entrance road to the White Deer Recreation Complex. There are federal designations and classifications established for highway systems in the nation as noted in the following sections. Road Functional Classification System The Federal Highway Administration, PennDOT and Metropolitan & Rural Planning Organizations cooperatively establish and update maps that delineate various road classifications which group roadways into a hierarchy based on the type of highway service provided.

Abstract Current levels of available resources to maintain and preserve the Pennsylvania short-line railroad bridge infrastructure require that important priority decisions be made on an annual basis. The primary objective of this study was to establish a reliable database of Pennsylvania SLRR bridges and to develop a risk-based bridge prioritization algorithm. A bridge survey of Pennsylvania short-line railroad owners and operators was conducted to develop a bridge database that would be as complete and accurate as possible given the available time and resources.

  • Wolf Administration Invests in Rail Infrastructure, Supports Business Development by Creating, Sustaining 255 Jobs Statewide 04/29/2019
    Wolf Administration Invests in Rail Infrastructure, Supports Business Development by Creating, Sustaining 255 Jobs Statewide 04/29/2019 Harrisburg, PA – Today Governor Tom Wolf announced the approval of 27 rail freight improvement projects that will help create and sustain 255 jobs across Pennsylvania. "Keeping goods and services moving across Pennsylvania’s more than 5,000 miles of freight track is vital to the state’s economy," said Governor Wolf. “These investments in our rail infrastructure will continue to support business development and create new jobs throughout the state." "Advancing rail freight projects will preserve, improve, and create additional services for the industries and customers," Secretary Richards said. "Governor Wolf and I are committed to ensuring economic competitiveness, improving safety, and strengthening the multimodal transportation system." Following is a list of the 27 approved rail freight projects with the state share: Allegheny County: Leetsdale Industrial Corporation -- $400,000 to construct approximately 0.5 miles of storage tracks to increase rail car capacity and efciencies. Allegheny and Washington counties: Allegheny Valley Railroad -- $1.9 million to rehabilitate approximately 34 miles of track on the W&P subdivision by raising, lining, and resurfacing the track. Blair County: Curry Rail Services -- $700,000 to expand and rehabilitate yard tracks at their facility to increase capacity and support their new business line. Millennium Rail, LLC -- $693,357 to rehabilitate yard tracks at the Hollidaysburg Tank Car Shop by replacing ties, turnouts, and ballast to increase the yard’s capacity and efciency. Mineral Manufacturing Corporation -- $700,000 to construct an unloading pit, acquire unloading equipment, and rehabilitate nearly one mile of yard tracks.
