Montgomery Lock and Dam Renovation Project

under construction

The Montgomery Lock and Dam project in Beaver County is a crucial renovation project on the Pittsburgh region's waterways. The project involves constructing a new chamber for the Montgomery Lock and Dam, which is part of the federal waterways carrying about 20 million tons of goods through the Upper Ohio River System. The work is underway and aims to replace parts of the lock and dam that are more than a century old, allowing billions of dollars of goods to move faster along the river and providing significant economic benefits and construction jobs.
