Category: News || By Submitted Report

Allegheny County today announced its fourth-annual Christmas Tree Recycling Program will run from Jan. 3 to 22.

Residents may drop off trees daily between 8 a.m. and 3:30 p.m. at the swimming pool parking lot in North, Settlers Cabin and South parks, as well as Boyce Park's model airplane field, which is located past the ski lodge. Signs will indicate the drop-off locations.

All lights, decorations, tinsel and stands must be removed from trees prior to drop-off. The trees will be mulched, and the mulch will be used in Allegheny County's nine regional parks.

Forward Twp. Road Work: Traffic will be restricted on Bunola River Road in Forward Township next week for brief periods during the day.

Crews from Pennsylvania Drilling are conducting geotechnical research for a future slope repair between Elkhorn Road and Route 136, says Jim Struzzi, PennDOT District 11 spokesman. Restrictions will occur as needed from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. each day.

Motorists should use caution and be aware of changing traffic patterns when driving through the area. Flag crews will control traffic as needed.

Meanwhile, a new bridge on Route 136 in Forward Township is now complete. The $1.3 million project included replacement of the bridge over Becketts Run and improvements to the surrounding roadway, Struzzi says. The Velotta Company of Sharon Center, Ohio, was the prime contractor.

Traffic on the bridge just west of the intersection with Kelley Hollow Road was restricted to a single lane beginning in July 2010. About 5,737 vehicles use the bridge on an average day.
