Shapiro Administration Transforms Cambria County Site into Job Hub

New Manufacturing Facility to Transform Former Moxham Bus Barns Site

The site of the former Moxham Bus Barns in Cambria County is set to undergo a transformation, bringing new employment opportunities and economic growth to the area. The Shapiro Administration has announced a significant development project, which will see the establishment of a new manufacturing facility at the location.

Grant to Pave the Way for Development

The Johnstown Redevelopment Authority has been awarded a $200,000 grant to facilitate the development process. This funding will be used to conduct comprehensive assessments of the soil, groundwater, and air quality at the site. The findings will shape the groundwork for the incoming advanced manufacturing facility.

Economic Impact and Job Creation

The development is expected to provide a significant boost to the local economy by creating numerous job opportunities. The Shapiro Administration’s initiative aims to not only rejuvenate a dormant site but also to enhance the economic landscape of Johnstown and its surrounding areas.

Environmental Assessments and Future Plans

As part of the grant’s utilization, thorough environmental assessments will be conducted to ensure that the site’s redevelopment aligns with environmental standards. These assessments are crucial steps in preparing the location for its new role as a hub for advanced manufacturing, ensuring sustainability and compliance with state regulations.
