Work began July 29 on park roads on the eastern portion of the battlefield in the Culp’s Hill and Spangler’s Spring areas, Hunt Avenue, Coster Avenue, and Benner Hill will be repaved. This three-month project addresses road surfaces that are at the end of their lifespan.
Here’s an update.
Daytime roadwork—6 am to 6 pm—that will affect normal visitation includes:
- August 26 – Full Closure, anticipated morning hours only: Hunt Avenue.
- August 27 – Full Closure: Benner Hill.
- August 29 – Full Closure: Wainwright Avenue.
- August 30 – Full Closure: East Steven’s Street (at Coster Avenue).
- September 3 to 6 – Partial or Rolling Closures Possible: Entire Culp’s Hill/Spangler’s Spring area, including all feeder roads.
A road closure map will be provided, via the park website at www.nps.gov/gett, so visitors can plan their visit accordingly.
Scheduled paving dates are subject to change. Every effort will be made to complete the work as expeditiously as possible as well as minimize disruptions for park visitors. Full details on the schedule of road work will be made available on the park website and social media platforms as details become available.
