In brief: Camp Meeting Road work, traveling glass recycling bin and more in Sewickley

Camp Meeting Road work

Work on Camp Meeting Road between Beech Ridge Drive and Fern Hollow Road in Bell Acres began July 26. The project, which is expected to last until October, includes the replacement of a culvert called Little Sewickley Creek Bridge No. 7 and repairs to the roadway.

That section of Camp Meeting Road has been closed since July 12, 2019, when storms caused part of the culvert and roadway to collapse. Traffic is being detoured using Camp Meeting Road Extension, Big Sewickley Creek Road and Rochester Road.

The $293,609 emergency project is being done by Pugliano Construction Co., Inc., of Pittsburgh.

Individuals can drop off glass bottles, jars and jugs of all colors (no color sorting required). Containers should be empty and rinsed, with lids and labels still on.
