PHILADELPHIA, PA — The Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT) has announced a comprehensive initiative aimed at enhancing stormwater management facilities across numerous state highways in the Philadelphia region. This project, valued at $14.9 million, will focus on stormwater improvements in Bucks, Chester, and Montgomery counties, with the goal of reinforcing infrastructure resilience against adverse weather conditions.
From Monday, September 30, through Friday, October 4, motorists can expect lane closures on County Line Road, stretching between Princeton Road and Route 232 (Second Street Pike/Huntingdon Pike) in Upper Southampton and Lower Moreland townships, Bucks and Montgomery counties. This segment of the project involves essential stormwater replacement work.
Simultaneously, Route 332 (Newtown Richboro Road) will experience weekday lane closures from September 30 through late October. The affected area, between West Hanover Street and Rock Way/Spring Garden Mill Drive in Newtown and Northampton townships, Bucks County, will undergo significant stormwater infrastructure upgrades.
Additionally, Route 841 (Wickerton Road) in Chester County will face lane restrictions between Chesterville Road and State Road in London Grove and Franklin townships from September 30 to October 4. This phase of the project will focus on paving operations to improve road surface conditions.
Drivers navigating these areas are advised to plan for delays and allocate additional travel time, as traffic congestion is anticipated around the work zones. It is important to note that all scheduled activities are contingent upon favorable weather conditions.
Highway Materials, Inc., based in Flourtown, Montgomery County, has been appointed as the general contractor for this vital infrastructure project, which is fully funded by state resources.
