Montoursville, PA – Motorists are advised a two-year road improvement project continues on Route 414 near the intersection with Blockhouse Road (Route 2005), in Liberty Borough and Liberty Township, Tioga County.

This afternoon, Friday, October 31, 2025, the long-term detour will be lifted, and Route 414 will be open to traffic.  Although the roadway will be open, the project is not yet complete. While the contractor works to finish the project, motorists can expect single lane conditions under flagging during daylight hours.

Motorists should be alert, obey flaggers, and drive with caution in the area.

Glenn O. Hawbaker is the prime contractor for this two-year $6.2 million roadway improvement project. Work on this project includes drainage work on Route 414 (High Street/Water Street) and Blockhouse Road, roadway reconstruction, retaining wall, sidewalks, curbing, and resurfacing of 1.7 miles of Williamson Road. Work is expected to be complete in November of 2025, weather permitting. Motorists can expect a winter shut down between construction seasons.
