STATE COLLEGE, Pa. — PennDOT work to replace the concrete bus lane on College Avenue scheduled for Monday, Sept. 28, through Thursday, Oct. 1, will result in the following impacts to traffic and transit service:
- A single-lane closure of College Avenue from McAllister Street to S. Allen Street will be in effect. Delays are expected, and drivers are advised to watch for slow moving and stopped vehicles through the entire work zone.
- The crosswalk at Pugh Street will be closed. Pedestrians approaching College Avenue from Pugh Street will follow a detour to the crosswalk at McAllister Street.
- The College Avenue/Allen Street bus stop will be closed. CATA and Campus Shuttle riders will need to use alternative stops, and all campus and community transit routes that travel on College Avenue will experience delays. See below for a full list of impacts:
CATA
For riders affected by the stop closure, the following alternative stops may be used during the closure:
- All riders are encouraged to use the bus stop at Pattee Library.
- Riders on the CC, NV, RP, or UP routes may use the stop on East College Avenue at Atherton Hall. Due to congestion in this area, only riders using these four routes should use this stop.
- Riders on the AC route are encouraged to use either the stop on Beaver Avenue at Schlow Library/CATA Office or the stop on Atherton Street at the Walker Building.
Campus Shuttle
The closest alternative stops for Campus Shuttle via College Avenue riders who normally use the College Avenue/Allen Street stop are College Avenue at Hiester Street and Burrowes Road at Reber Building.
Normal transit service will resume once PennDOT finishes their work. All work is weather dependent, and the schedule is subject to change.
