April 23, 2026 DVRPC Board Action Item
Date Prepared: 04/09/20265a. State Road over Darby Creek (Bridge) (MPMS #93105), Delaware County – Increase Construction Phase
Background/Analysis/Issues
PennDOT has requested that DVRPC amend the FFY2025 TIP for Pennsylvania by increasing the Construction (CON) phase of the State Road over Darby Creek (Bridge) (MPMS #93105) project in the amount of $8,589,000 State 185 (FFY26: $5,500,000/FFY27: $3,089,000). The reason for the increase is due to inflation of construction costs and refinements to the quantities of materials needed for the project as final design is being completed.
This project will rehabilitate the State Road bridge over Darby Creek. The bridge is currently posted for non-load. Staged construction maintaining traffic will be used to replace the bridge.
Financial Constraint
Financial constraint will be maintained by making adjustments to other existing TIP projects whose schedules or costs have changed. The attached fiscal constraint charts provided by PennDOT show all of the adjustments taking place in accordance with the TIP Memorandum of Understanding. All projects listed contribute to fiscal constraint.
Conformity Finding
The TIP's current conformity finding will not be impacted by this amendment as this project is exempt from air quality analysis.
Cost and Source of Funds
$8,589,000 State 185

Regional Technical Committee (RTC): Recommends Approval.
